I'm so bloody confused right now. First his parents want us to get married next month before Eden is born so that a: she won't be a b*****d b: we can be living together when we come home from the hospital. The only problem with that was my mom who thought we were too young to get married, even though we're having a child together, but I thought she was okay with the idea of us living together. Then last night after yet another talk with my mom trying to get her to be okay with the thought of us getting married his parents say they give up and Myckel can move in whenever we want him to. I was so excited and went home immediately to tell my mom the good news. I thought she would be happy because we can wait on getting married but still have him living here with Eden and I. All she said to the whole thing was "Let me think about it." I don't understand why she doesn't see how important it is that he be here for Eden and for me. She raised my younger sister and I as a single parent, and constantly told me that being a single parent is so incredibly hard. Yet still after all that she seems determined that I become one.
