Liability . . .

So my post earlier was about my boyfriend being okay at first with us having a kid and now has gone from okay to wanting me to put her up for adoption .  He said he doesn't want to be liable  and have to give me money when I need some ( I am 18 he is 17 )
I am 22w+4d . So not only does he not want to be liable  he said he will be there for her but not me and when I asked what that meant he said he will see his daughter but he doesn't  want to be with me anymore .  I am 18 and now am going to be a single mother with no help accept for my parents . . .  I cannot stop crying . . .  I'm going to be alone forever  </3

He can sign over parental rights. And only you will be a legal parent of the child. Meaning you can decide if he has a right to visit or not. Gpod luck.

I had my first baby at 15 & my second at 18 & I'm now 23 & just had my 3rd. I am not with the first twos dad & I am married to a wonderful man! You will NOT be alone forever dont ever let a man make you feel that way!!! There is someone for everyone & he just obviously isn't the one for you!

I agree...with all the posters BTW...and in my state he goes to jail n loses his drivers license if he doesn't pay...unfortunately if he gets caught up...maybe after she is born get a paternity test n take him to court... start it now if he doesn't come around

F**k him! One keep her if you want! He'll be liable and too f**king bad! Just think about it during the rest of the time...don't stress...my sis had my nephew when she was 18...n the dad denies him...she doesn't try to get money but that's her choice...she doesn't want him around...but if you apply for state help they'll make him into the PICT...idk... if you're happy n can't wait for your daughter then keep her...you won't be alone for forever...you'll have her! Most boys now a days are immature n scandalous...

Girl calm down. I was 16 when I got pregnant with my son. 17 when I had him and 17 when I got pregnant with my daughter and 18 when I had her. When I was pregnant with her me and the dad split up they have the same dad. I was a single mom to a 15 month old and a newborn I only had the help of my mother and that was to live with her. You CAN do it alone and you will not be single forever but I'll be the first to tell you that you DONT NEED A MAN! Figure out what works best for yourself and your child before you try and find someone. You'll be alright all you need is god your parents and your baby :)

Sweetie take a deep breath. Your boyfriend is being an *** but you can't control him. The only things you have power over right now is you and your little girl. By the way he will be liable if he gets a job because you can go after him for child support which I would reccomend. Also, you have what sounds like a supportive family so enjoy that. Not every woman no matter what her age has the support of her family. You won't be alone forever either. If this boy doesn't figure it out then he isn't worth it. You will find a nice guy out there who loves you and your daughter unconditionally. These men do exist I promise. I know it all seems hopeless at the moment but you really need to just take things one day at a time. I hope everything works out for you I really do. Just remember what a beautiful little girl you are having and go from there.
