**Need Advice/Insight**

So my boyfriend and I live together, and he makes decent money but we're still struggling. We've been talking about me applying for WIC, but I don't really know how this works. Since we live together, will they count his income?

I can't lie and say that I'm alone even though legally I am a "single mother" because I don't want any trouble, but I also don't want to get denied, we really do need the help.

Does anyone know how the state of New Jersey's WIC program works and what I should do?

I had WIC with my first baby. They asked who lived in the house & I didn't lie but when they asked for my fiancé's income I said "it doesn't matter what he makes, we're not married" & I received WIC with that answer 💁

@alysonxo That I'm not sure of where you live. Here in pa because we live together but not married, he's the father and he's the only one with income they required it.

@skysmommy04, ugh I hope it's that way here. Since we live together it's considered "one household" so that's the income for the household. 🙄

Wic ask for proof of income and your ID literally and if you have no income boom.. no need to mention spouse etc they don't ask if you own a home well here they don't

I googled it for you. If he makes no more then $3,108 a month you should be approved if you add his income.

I received wic and since we lived together and he was the only one with income they needed it included. I mean I couldn't say I live alone but don't work and have no income. How am I survive then? I can't say I get government assistance if I'm not they want proof. So most likely if he's the only one with income then yes they'll need it. If your making any income then just give them yours.

@cubanese, won't they ask how I pay for it? They won't believe that me with no income is a homeowner all on my own 😂

@cubanese, but I always thought that since legally I'm a single mother that it didn't matter

need suggestions.... So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.

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?

Keep the baby or Abortion.......

Keep the baby or Abortion....... I'm 5 weeks pregnant which was not planned, told my family and there over the moon. I've been with my boyfriend for 4 years, we said we would be together no matter what. We both live with our parents and I'm in full-time work and he isn't. I've always wanted to be a mum it's one of my dreams, but my boyfriend thinks we should have an abortion because he thinks we are not ready, he doesn't have a full-time job and we are not living together. I don't believe in abortions and he said he would stay with me if I decide to keep it. But I scared he might leave. Should I keep the baby that I've always wanted and might not ever have one or have in abortion, know I have to live with the pain for the rest of my life and what till we are both ready? Please HELP :-(
