I broke up with my ex and I’m having his child. What do I do?

[nagin27]

My relationship with my ex had both good and bad moments, but when it came close to breaking up with him I didn’t realize I would be having his child. My parents took my phone away so we could confirm if it was actually true and when it was I thought it was the best choice to not tell my ex and just break up with him. It’s still hard for me to move on from him knowing that yes there were moments in the relationship that were toxic, but he had never hurt me… he was just very controlling or I guess how he says very possessive. Now I have these thoughts roaming through my mind if I should not tell him about the baby at all or should I tell him. I don’t need his help financially raising the baby, but I still would at least want him to meet his child without going through court and having to deal with all that. What should I do?

You don't need his financial help in raising your kid? Do you know that raising a kid from infancy to age 18 can cost up to $350,000? You planning on having a well paying job and no child care costs, which in some cases can cost as much as you make? No one knows the future. Even if you don't need it now you may later.

Stupid games stupid prizes. Single mothers are a plague for society. Have fun raising the next drug dealer or the next street prostitute.

I heard there's a market for Adrenochrome if you want to start all over where you have all the time in the world to find true love.

Wow at 19? Sorry to hear that
Either get back with him or find a way to get a husband or boyfriend to be the kids new “father figure” or if he’s not abusive etc find a way to have him in ur life but not a major part I don't know

Pray 🙏 to God and if In Christ Jesus then say Lords Prayer. And then, seek His guidance and Hope.

He’s just a sperm donor.

You need to have support from the father

Just tell him. You will see a positive impact
