Well ain't that a b*tch!

minicheezburg · January 2012

My sister just sent me a text to let me know that she is having twin baby boys. She is 18 and has only known/been with the father since last July 27th. They live in his parents house. She is unemployed and he works 20 hours a week for min wage. I feel defeated. Am I being ridiculous?

No, you aren't being ridiculous...unfortunately it's usually people who aren't in the best situation who get to become parents. It's unfair and it sucks, but it happens.

BIG ((hugs)) to you!

I am so sorry that you are dealing with this. I am right there as well. My sister just told me that she was pregnant, she is not in the same situation as your sister, but it still stings. You have to balance being happy and sad at the same time. Hang in there!

This totally

*hugs* Not, not ridiculous at all. It's so frustrating to be in our shoes and know that others who weren't prepared/don't want to be pregnant or who are far too young or immature get their take home babies with no trouble.

not at all! i would be agrivated too! just like a pp said - its usually the ones that cannot support it that actually get KU! Angry

UGH. well, that hurts me, too. I hope she smothers her precious gift with love and attention. I can only hope to be a parent some day.

way to go, Universe...

I would be pissed. Life is so unfair, and unfortunately those who should have babies and those who do have babies doesn't always match up. In fact, sometimes it feels downright opposite of what it should be. ((hugs))

Eveanyn · January 2012

Ugh. What all the PPs said. (((hugs)))

This. I'm so sorry.

psychmajormom · January 2012

You aren't being ridculous sweetie. I'm am so sorry you have to deal with that. ((((hugs))))

OO cupcakes OO · January 2012

Nope. It's hard to see those who are in no position to have a baby/weren't trying to have a baby get pg and have perfectly healthy babies and no problems at all. It makes no sense.

ktsnshn · January 2012

Ugh. That would upset me too. ((hugs))

panacea05 · January 2012

Dagger through the heart. I am so sorry. {hugs}

MissNYC1987 · January 2012

Not at all...I'm sorry your upset

Gunther17 · January 2012

*HUGS*

Ugh that wld irritate the sh*t out of me too!

I appreciate all the posts. To top it off our finance company for the house we want to buy just called us to let us know they repulled my husbands credit report and now 3 days before closing the income to debt ratio is too high and now we can't buy our house after 3 months of hurdles to get to this point. UGH. BAD DAY!

RedRose84 · January 2012

No, you are not being ridiculous. I'm so sorry you have to go through that right now. **Hugs**

minicheezburg · January 2012

Again thank you ladies! You truly are amazing!

rosesarepink · January 2012

I'm so sorry. Life is so unfair sometimes, I just don't get it. HUGS!

Not ridic at all.

Dang Breeders.

That is so tough when people make it look so easy and then people who prepare, pray, and do everything in their power seem to have such a harder time.

I try to remind myself that I am a much stronger person than many of the breeders I know (sorry if anyone takes offense to that term, snarky side coming out I guess) and perhaps I am being dealt this hand because I am able to handle it when others may not. Still sucks big ol' monkey butt if you ask me...
