| Tell your son the truth from the get-go. His father went away because he didn't want to be with Mommy. Say it like that and he'll never think that Dad left because of him. ITs way too early to worry about that. What does a 1-month old know aboput Dads, does a 1-month old know tghat he has a Dad, is supposed to have a Dad, or be asking about aDad? Of course not Worry about getting child support from him, MAKE sure you do this? even if he doesn't have a job... There are plenty of programs out there, start with WIC, and if you work(do you work?) inquire about mother's hours and see if you can arrange for some free baysitting so you can make some money. If you have a grandmother, mother, aunt, older sister, trusted friend etc... that will babysit for you while you go to work, then you can be free to make some money for your family. Who would want to date a 21-yrear=old single Mom? Who cares, why are you worried about dating, look wher eit got you... "Dating" got you stuck all alone with a child and no help. Sounds bad this way, but don't worry about dating. Be more concerned with what is important, which is taking care of that GIFT from God. Who would want to date a mature-for-her-years 25-year-old mother who has learned to take care of herself AND a baby with no support?? Plenty of guys , especially ones who are ones that have children, are seperated from them but have visitation, they will recognize a true "woman" (that's you) when they see one, good lcuk ↑ |
