Maybe adoption

by crystaljean88   Mar 10, 2007


I love my daughter with all my heart,
I just don't think i can finish what i start.

I thought i had a boyfriend who would love the both of us,
But when i ask him to even change a diaper he makes a fuss?

He was the one who wanted this baby!
I knew we just wasnt ready.

I told my boyfriend this, but it didnt change anything,
Now im engaged but he cant even afford a ring.

Why did i let myself keep this child?
Now child support papers need to be filed.

Comming to think of it, maybe adoption would of been the right way to go.
But all these hard problems just now began to show.

So take my advice if you an underage mother,
Do you really think you have a man who would deal with being a father?

    This is very good...it has a very strong message to it, and sadly its very true. but your daughter will appreciate you for what you decide to do, cause either way she'll know you love her and want the absolute best for her. keep it up.

    I really liked this, it conveyed a strong message although some of the stanzas didn't quite flow, but I really enjoyed it, good work =]

    I LOVE IT! Its so ture in the real world! But no adoption isnt the answer your daughter needs you, if he doesnt want to be there then let him not be there because when your daughter gets older its you that she'll appreciate!

    It does not only happen to teenage mums ,i was almost 22 when I had my first ,loved his dad so very much ,thought he loved me too ,but then he went off with someone else ,made all the right promises to be there for our baby but never was.I was lucky I had my parents to get me through.That baby is 14 now ,along the way theres been times I found it hard but I love him dearly and wouldn't be without him.A great write you've cone here ,well done to you.
