Most jobs out here start in the high 30s or low 40s. I love what I do daily. I can support myself I just think having help would be easier. The military guy... I just want to be with him I can't describe it he's just so perfect for me.
Then move? Find a job outside of your typical degree field. A lot of people do not end up working exactly in their field.
Just this statement right here, tells me how much you have to learn about life.
How old are you anyway?
Does your school have those fake babies you can take home to wake you up all night, scream inconsolably etc?
Have you ever had a pet and actually cared for it every day?
25 and in high school I remember they stopped that program for whatever reason. I haven't ever had a pet. When I move after graduation I might get a puppy but idk depends on my schedule I'm not a big animal person
Im only encouraging her to do what feels right for her. Havin a family is an amazing gift I think every one deserves that shot, whether you have money or dont.
Gab, have a baby when you want. Money doesnt matter, people have raised family's with less. If you are ready to have a baby and have love to give then go for it but if I were you I would wait and be married first. But it is your life so do as you wish. You dont have to wait to be done with school and rich before havin a baby. Theres never a perfect time. Just do whats best for you. And if you end up a little strapped after you give birth there is always wic and other programs that can help if you need to get on your feet. But I do hope you find the right man.
IMO that's just irresponsible!
Waiting to be married first = find any man who'll be a good sperm donor so to get pregnant = that marriage most likely to fail. I've heard "this song" before within people I've interacted who've been through this.
The WIC and Programs = it would be one thing if the pregnancy was accidental/unplanned but with the OP this advice is just in kind will not serve her well and her own best interests and would make her a prisoner of soughts in not being able to solidifying her future earning life verses potentially doing that while taking care of a child(ren) and working and affording it all.
