Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
Mommas who are separated from their childrens dad. If my sons father is to get our son every other Friday-Sunday, but then tells me halfway through the week he can't take him Friday until Saturday due to taking up an optional shift at work, can I legally tell him he either takes him Friday at his ordered time or doesn't get him? He's constantly cancelling whole weekends or taking our son a quarter of his ordered time. He also isn't following the meets on the order. Almost every Sunday he has him I get a message that he doesn't have a car so I have to get my son, or he tells me i have to run him out there. I'm already having cut hours at work and getting no child support from him since he's been continuously in and out of work.
My boyfriend is so upset that I didn’t give our son his last name but I have 4 other kids that has my last name I didn’t want to make him the only one with a different last name. Is that selfish of me? Or should he just understand. We not married
Question. I just left my husband for cheating and now hes been harassing me. Hes threatening to come get our son. I dont care if he sees his son but I'm not comfortable with him leaving with him bc hes never taken care of him a day In his life and he might use him against me. Am I wrong for feeling this way??
@itsamemario, you deleted your post before I could hit send but this is my comment: I don’t know if this answers your question but this is my answer. My son is 7 and he knows race and color. Why? Because he himself comes from a family that is multi racial and because he has already experienced racism. I also believe as his mother it’s my job to teach him color and the cold hard truth about society. He knows what’s going on in this world. I’d be hurting him if I allowed him to blindly walk outside without this information. Children of color are being targeted and killed too. It’s not just adults. I let my son know we treat everyone equally and with respect. I let him know that we love everyone for their differences. In every aspect. Color, race, ethnicity, religion, sexual preference we love everyone.

My family is the same way, but me & my daughters father are together. They said if I don't have his last name then neither should my child. But in the end, it really is your choice. You could always give your child your last name at first & if he does stick around you can always put his name on the birth certificate. If he doesn't end up sticking around (not saying he won't) then your baby doesn't have to grow up with the last name of a man he doesn't know.

If he is there for the baby not just physically, but financially, why not? If that man has made a commitment (and shown you) that he will be there for his child, there is no reason to take that away from him by not giving his son his last name just because you all aren't together.... Yes I do agree it is ultimately up to you. Just make sure you make your decision not based on your feelings or your family's opinion of the situation.

You have to do what's right for you and the baby. I gave my first born my last name. His father was a horrible person and my baby didn't deserve to carry a name for someone that I wouldn't allow around him for my son's safety. Think long term if you feel that he will be there and is worthy of your child then he's I can say it would be good. But if you think he may just bail then maybe not because I always feared giving my child his last name and something happen and regretting it. Names can always be changed. With my daughters dad we were back and forth I gave her my last name. We are engaged now and expecting twins. My daughter who is 7 loves her dad but is very happy I gave her my last name. The biggest thing is me and my family were there from day one and always will be no matter what. It's a huge load for a child to carry a last name for an absent person. My fiance has the last name of his biological father never met him and its hard for him.

coming from somebody who has a hyphened last name, dont do it, cause its such a pain in the ass cause when i go to doctor appointments or pick up meds or go the hospital i can never remember what last name they have cause they dont use both, they either use one or the other
