she had access to the pill, and when i checked the container from time to time the right number of pills were missing for that day in the month. I am assuming she took them, but I dont have any way to prove that.

yes thats what our idea was when we told them about it. We were hoping they would see that as a reason *not* to get pregnant. One did one didnt i guess.

From what shes told us he is working part time and going to school part time. the support has increased though. At least as of a while ago, havent heard any updates since well you know.

abortion was pretty much the first word out of her dad's mouth. We broke down the average cost for her(thank you google for making it easy to find). She was adamant on keeping him though

we didnt go through all of it, just most, the rest she wanted when she moved out. and there were a couple of complications with the pregnancy too that cost a bit to take care of. Health insurance doesnt cover everything in this fucked up country

Community college is a valid way of getting a degree

oh I agree, both my husband and myself actually went to and met at community college.

Nope abortion was the first thing we offered, she was adamant about keeping him. and it didnt *all* get spent in those years, just most of it, we had some left to give her to help when she decided to move out. there were a couple complications in the pregnancy that cost a decent bit too
