So...

[b][c=#7700B2]A friend of mine mistakenly gets knocked up by a guy that spends most of his paycheck on alcohol. They are not in love or anything but they agreed to keep the baby and she had told him she would introduce him to her family today. She called him earlier today and he said he was on his way and it's now 10pm but he still hasn't shown up. My assumptions are that he's out spending money on alcohol instead of saving up for the baby[/c][/b]

@Bernie2 that he wouldn't make a fool of her by not showing up obviously

Anyone who cares that little about a person that they don't love her or care that she got pregnant cannot be depended on for anything, especially if they have no desire to change. Your "friend" needs to force him to pay child support, because he won't do it himself.@karysma

@redeem26 Well in my side of the world he could get away with not paying child support because they are not that strict. I told her she was making a mistake having another baby outside marriage but after her first baby daddy took off but she told me she wanted another baby then she'll focus on her kids because she had given up that someday she'd get married. She seems to be making lots of bad decisions and though I try to advice her at the end of the day the decision is hers to make

@karysma That is silly. It's not about her. It's about the baby. Concern for her image would hardly be a priority with him. And it doesn't matter anyway. She is the one who will have to take charge.

@greenmountaingal problem is she let's him walk all over her. She's too sweet

@karysma Tell her she will need to be strong to be a good mother. Mushy responses to an immature man will hurt her child and also be a poor example. She is still in the adolescent stage of paying attention to her fantasies instead of actual reality.
