What do you expect shes only 16.

damn bro..
not nice..
i wish you best of LUCK!

you ruined your life

Sad, but may be a smartest action to take for the kid.

18 and you're going for a GED? That hardly qualifies for much. If you care enough to save up $, I?m sure there is a way to start a trust or something.

As far as custody, depends on state law. Plus you?ll need bucks for legal help. I?d say it?s an uphill battle.

I suspect a couple of years from now; emotions about the event will change for both of you.

You screwed up. You know that. The most responsible thing I can think of standing back from the situation is to put the child that you probably already care about in a loving environment with people that will also love the child and may have the wealth and education to provide a hopeful future.

That?s my 2 cents.

A smarter action would be to get professional counseling rather than turning to us idiots on GFY. Second thought on the professional advice. Lets see Priest, Psychologist, Social Worker?. You?re better off here at GFY!!!

GO FUCKIN KILL YOURSELF
YOUR SCREWED !

I had a baby a week before my seventeenth birthday...and guess what...
I graduated with my class.
I went to college.
I never gave custody of my child to anyone else.
I've never had my child removed from my care.
I've never abused or neglected him, or any of my subsequent children, or been accused of such.

My first thought was adoption...abortion isn't an option I could live with.. But I grew up a lot while pregnant, and while I know I have made mistakes, every parent does, and my son is a healthy, fairly well-adjusted 10 year old.
My point is, it's possible to be a decent parent at your age. It's a fuck of a lot harder, but it is possible.

Good luck.

17 years of teaching HS and you still can't spell poor?

p.s. perfectiongirls (one of pornkings programs) SHAVES like a motherfucker! stay away!

He put his dick where it shouldn't have been....

Crap she's only 16???? Really sucks, good luck :(

Don't listen to all the abortion and kill yourself crap. Your life isn't over you're just starting a new chapter.

I had my daughter at 20, and realized that it was time to grow up... simple as that.

Where do you live because every state has different laws concerning custudy and child support. As long as you are seen by the court as a fit parent and you can support your child then they will not take your parental rights away. Make sure you get your name put on the birth certificate when the child is born.... that is extremely important if or when you go to court for custody.

You have plenty of time to get your shit straight... just make sure you cut yourself lose from any friends that will be a negative light on you, make sure you get a steady job with a paycheck and keep it, and if you still live at home you really need to get out and show that you can support yourself. The court will look at all of this as factors to custody when the time comes.

Oh and see sig.... mainstream opportunity that might help you.

:thumbsup

Wow, 16 and pregnant. I can't imagine having a child at 24! In any case, you need to get your shit together save save and plan!

You might not stay together with your woman, but you two need to own up and face up. Relationships always have their problems, this child will only compound your issues. Whether you stay together or not - you both have to live for the child.


As for some advice for custody - record any conversations as previously mentioned. Keep a log of EVERYTHING and keep your receipts - diapers food, clothes.

There may be shelters or churches that can help you with baby supplies - a lot of crips and other necessities are constantly being donated.


All the best

Damn..that really sucks

dude, dont forget...

you better stay as close as possible to your baby's mamma, because unless she willingly gives you full custody, she will have you by the balls for the next 18 years

The girl who I was going to marry was born to a single mother at 18, her mother is now a lawyer who does lots of work for the poor and under privlidged in California (woman is damn near a saint).

I met her in my micro class when I was a pre-med freshmen at a private college. Her daughter entered into college at 16 as a sophomore, the girl is one of the smartest women I know.

Her mother said it was hard but she had to do it for her daughter, she had a responsibility to another human now and she did what she needed to do. Her daughter says that she wishes to thank her mother for all the hard work she did by working really hard herself and making it on her own. She is now in med school and doing well, talk to her everyday and we inspire and push each other.

It is possible for you to do it man, just gonna have to push hard, and you are welcome, hit me up sometime if you want.

you fucked up big time. :2 cents:

good luck man, Kids are the greatest gift from god, keep your cool with her she needs not to be upset right now so dont add fuel to the fire, think about that precious life and how wonderful it will be to see it flourish and save every penny you can, try to keep her as happy as possible until the baby is born and then be ready for the fight that might happen, get all the goals you said you would accomplished and more.

Both him and his girl we're fucking dumbasses for even getting pregant but where do YOU get off calling someone irresponsible? You are a fucking thief. Some responsible person you are.

which are you? the pot or the kettle?


Doesn't fucking matter. Both are fucking black.

BINGO

It's not the end of the world. For many years women had kids at 18 in developped parts of the continent.. It was normal even at 13 until the turn of the century. Things are way different now but she can still be a mom and you can still be a dad. her life plans as well as yours will take a major leap but it's all for the best. just don't succumb tot his "im fucked" crap like a ghetto bitch would and raise a criminal. Get your shit in gear, talk some sense into the girl when need be and reassure her you'll be there no matter what she says or does. Everything will work out JUST FINE if you want it to.

Age means fuck all if you got your wits about you.

GOD I love the booty in your sig!!!

Thank Lil2Rich4u2 for finding it.

Uhm... yeah EXACTLY what Jeff said.

Is she mexican or catholic? at least where im from mexican chick get pregnat at 16 and think it is just the smartest thing to do is have kids while your young

Thanks Lil2Rich4u2! I'll have to make sure my husband gets to see that when he gets up tomorrow morning! He loves those juicy booties!

abort it

i'm glad you want to be a father. too many guys bail.

relax. get your shit together. a lot can happen in nine months.

no kidding,

since my gf got preggers we bought a car, then a house, then a new car and i'm doing steady work.

Prior to that we lived in a crummy appartment, our lives sucked, we thought we'd never have anything to look forward to and we didn't care where our lives went and we were depressed about not having a car or a home of our own while our friends had everything and didn't appreciate it one bit. A rut is what we lived in.

Amazing what a child on the horizon can do. We want nothing but the best for our little family.

:thumbsup

Eugenics now, eugenics forever.

get your sigs in now

I guess I'll be seeing you real soon. :Graucho

i think you should seriously consider putting the child up for adoption.

There are many couples out there who could provide an amazing life for a an unplanned child.

You are positioned to bring nothing but hardship and struggle to a child because you did not really think "it" would happen to you.

Think about it......

do not be selfish....do not think just becuae you feel like "stepping up" it is the best thing to do.

The right thing to do and the best thing to do are two totally different things.

You should sit down and discuss giving the child to a family who will provide it with an ideal life....not one of struggle and resentment.

I read not one single post here.....why.....because i could give a fuck what most of the faceless twits have to say....

whatever your choice i wish the very best of luck. If you decide to raise the child......do your very best......in the end it will measure who you are.

most adoptions are done through agencies and lawyers.. very little are actually put up to the state..unless there is a death or no one to take care fo the newborn. I say adoption is a great way..so many people that cant have children and want kids badly.

I gave my first child up... the parents were and are still fantastic.. he is 19 now.. but I got letters and pictures and was allowed to send things to him..we have a good open realationship. I still have yet to meet him.. but that is a very possible option when he is ready to confront me or wants to meet me... the father and I are still very close friends and stay in contact over this.


Adoption or abortion is all I have to offer for advice. too many kids being raised by grandparents because the parents skipped out to "live their life"...if the girl says she is not ready..guess what..she is not ready and will resent the hell out of the child..she is the one that is physically going to gestate the fetus.. are you ready to give up your childhood and youth to be a full time dad?..its not easy!!!

This thread makes me realize I am way too selfish to have kids anytime soon.

Good luck with your situation.

Damn... who's that dude in your sig? :1orglaugh :1orglaugh
