She's pregnant, and doesn't want it.
Posted Friday July 23 2010, 5:02 am
As you might have guessed, my girlfriend is pregnant. She's freaking out, and I'm thrilled. She's thinks about an abortion, and I want to keep it. Not the way we pictured it.
The reason she's freaking out is that I'm in the USMC, and will be deployed for all of her pregnancy and probably a lot of the child's life. In fact, I'm leaving in about a week for my latest deployment.
She's worried that if something happens to me, she couldn't handle being a single mother. But I know she could.
Don't get me wrong, I am pro-choice. But I never considered my child to be on that line. If she wants to terminate the pregnancy which she has every right to, she can do that, I doubt I could speak to her again.
I lo...

Teen mother in need of someone to talk to.
Posted Wednesday July 14 2010, 9:18 pm
I'm 17 and about to be a freshman in college. I am starting now, while I'm pregnant, and I'm majoring in civil engineering. I'm a single mom-to-be. The stress of preparing for a baby and college don't bother me as much as the stress of trying to make decisions about the father's involvement in the baby's life. Who can I talk to, either online or in person, about these paternal decisions?

Step-daughter wants to call me mom.
Posted Thursday May 27 2010, 10:54 am
My husband has 3 children from his previous marriage and has full-custody. We've had custody of them for 3 years now in Texas. Their mother lives in California. She has been unemployed since she moved out there 5 years ago. She makes no efforts to be a "real" part of the kids' lives. She hasn't come to visit, her cell is continuously shut off so calls are limited (once a week or every two weeks). And the children are currently 11, 8, and 6.
The other day the 8 year old asked if I knew why she didn't correct someone when they call me her mom. She then told me she didn't want them to know I was her step-mom. I asked her if she believed it was a bad thing and she told me no, she thinks I am a mom. I told her it was fin...

shoplifting lawyer
Posted Wednesday May 5 2010, 2:30 am
My daughter got caught shoplifting recently and I need to know if there are shoplifting lawyers or is there some other defense?
I don't know why she did it. In fact, She has NO idea why she did it. So she says, anyway. I am both furious at her and scared that a trifling bit of stupidity will ruin her entire life. Can anyone suggest a course of action?
Thank you!

Pregnancy test
Posted Saturday April 17 2010, 7:16 pm
Okay I'm a little confused,
Say I had sex 7 days ago, I take a pregnancy test resulting from the 7 days ago I had sex..but I had sex AGAIN the day before I took the test would it relapse and effect the results from the first time I had unprotected sex?
Let me try to break this down so it's not confusing..
7 days ago I had unprotected sex with my partner
I took a test, However I also had unprotected sex again the day before I took the pregnancy test. Would the test come out negative or would the results get effected?

My daughter is talking to a boy online that she's never met before...
Posted Wednesday March 24 2010, 12:03 am
I recently saw my daughter left her email open when she left for school one morning. Obviously I looked at her emails and saw a boy's name that I did not recognize. I was excited, thinking she had gotten herself her very first boyfriend, and opened the email up to read for myself.
The boy is not from this town though. The boy is actually on the other side of the country. They, apparently, have been talking for a number of weeks, if not months, about all sorts of things. I don't know how they first came in contact with each other but there are lots of emails and they have been chatting on IM based on the email content.
I am worried because of internet preditors becoming more common now. The boy signs his...

How to keep my kids calm when going through the drive-thru?!
Posted Tuesday March 23 2010, 10:40 pm
I like to take my little twin boys out once a month. We end up going through a drive-thru somewhere and getting lunch or dinner and heading down to the playground or park area for a couple of hours. We always have such a nice time but I have a problem when we first start the adventure at the drive-thru! As soon as we are in the line at the speaker post both of my boys start going crazy. They start yelling and screaming and trying to get out of their seats. They say all sorts of things from greeting the person taking my order over and over and OVER again to demanding ice cream, cookies, toys, and other treats. It's so embarrassing and I'm sure the order-takers probably think I can't control my own kids in a drive-thru line!
