Well it is your father's house. Unfortunately you have to listen to his rules. Is there somewhere else your bf can stay so he is able to get a job?

Is your boyfriend 18?  Marry him if you love him and think he's father material.  

From the sound of it,  he's got some growing up to do if he's still at home at 18 living in a miserable situation.  Many guys get out.

They find a way.

You've been with him for 4 years your gonna have a child with him, is it such a bad idea to marry him? I married my husband because of our baby girl and we're very happy about it, I'm not saying it's the correct thing to do, there is no right way to raise a child but if you want him to be around and that's ur grandpas only condition maybe it would he what's best for your baby girl. Give it some consideration :)

No he dont have hardly anyfriends and anywhere else would be right next to his house where his dad would still beat him till he did what he wanted

Go down to the court house, apply for a marriage certificate and go see an official that will marry you two. Easy, fast and cheap. You need a witness... have your grandpa be the witness :) Sounds like that would greatly improve everybody's lives/living situatiion.

You should get married so not only he would be able to move in with you and away from his situation but you will have a commitment from him other than just saying your his girlfriend/ baby momma, it will allow you guys to move forward in the right direction ad husband and wife and give your child/children something many children go without,  a loving family and peaceful home and see two parents that truly love each other and that are committed and that have the strongest commitment that two people can have,  and that's being husband and wife.  Just make sure that you both agree that you truly want to be together with one another and desire marriage.

saramay,  keep your eyes wide open.  It looks to you like he's the victim of his situation,  but other guys would have been out of there,  even if it meant living with a former teacher for a couple months or so.  

He may just not be motivated - at all - to do anything with his life.
