Who can watch my baby !!!!
Hello I'm 16 years old and my grandma is trying to MAKE me put my baby in daycare but I don't want him to !! Because my baby's father and his mom offered to take care of him while I'm in school. But my grandma doesn't want them to ! Can I decide about the situation? ?????
Yes, you're right. It's his baby like it's yours. You're gonna have to stand up to your grandma and tell her you're gonna do what you want with YOUR baby.
1. If he helped create it, then it isn't watching or babysitting, it is raising.
2. Are there any issues in his home or environment that could harm your child? If no, send the baby with a bag in the morning. Be wise when sending the child, find out exactly who will care for them and be around them.
3. Be careful crossing granny if you live with her. You are not her child. You will be someone else's mom. Depending on your location she may not be required to care for you.
4. Do you plan on moving in with the dad?

She doesn't like his family. And she thinks their strangers around him !! Which they're not. Its his baby like its mine
Is there at least a good reason your grandma doesn't want him or his family around at all?
Your baby not hers she should respect your choices
The fact your son's father even wants to babysit is a good thing! He obviously wants his baby and wants to help. That's rare and he shouldn't be robbed of his own child bc your grandma (who has NO rights) wants him to be.
Your decision... don't let anyone make you feel like you have no say.. that is your baby and you make the decision on who cares for him while you are in school. Just bcuz your 16 doesn't mean you can't decide. I was 14 with my first son and everyone felt they had to tell me what i was to do with him and tried making me feel like i couldn't decide. He now is 16 and is such a great kid.
It's completely your decision. No one elses.
Grandparents don't have rights. Your the mother so you have the right to decide. Plus if you want the father of your child around then let him babysit. Will be good for them both.
You're the mother, you have the right to decide who watches the baby
Exactly what i was thinking...its not her baby- your the mother you make those vital decisions.
It's not up to your grandma! It's not her baby
