Quote:I'm thinking adoption for my baby, but I know if I tell him he'll think it's hot and want to keep it. I don't want to disappoint him but am really confused right now. Could use some advice from people with more experience!
Ok does anyone else think is weird and completely crazy and wrong - that to keep a baby would be "hot" and that is why you want to keep the child? This is a child that would need 24/7 care for over 18 years. It is a sex toy to use for an hour a day and then after you get bored and something else is hot you dump it.
You guys should not even think of raising a hamster much less a child.
And I have not even mentioned your financial (or lack thereof) situation.
And you do not even want the child - you want to have the child adopted. Yep I do think that is the best option for you, the loser boyfriend and especially the baby. Give this child a chance in life and allow it to be cared for a couple that wants a child.
That is the advice coming from someone much more experienced than you - one who has raised two children that are now young adults and one who realizes how much work and caring is involved.
