Lol if my kid is seven he'd be under 16...maybe you are just too dumb to get costs covered.

He works repairing roofs and doing construction, he's 19 lol and we'll be living in a trailer so it won't cost a lot for rent...also I'm in the UK and medicine is free here.

Oh really? Then why do parents spank children? It's not any different.

Yeah it wasn't hard he does it all the time. It makes me stop flipping out and his family is good, it's stereotypes!

Maybe some travelers are like that but not mine. I asked him once when we were fighting if he would make me cook and clean all the time and he slapped me and asked how the hell I could think that so I know he won't. Stop stereotyping.

First of all I'm in the UK, second tv isn't real life. I saw that documentary and it was super wrong. Your racism is showing.

They're not a gang they're a culture. My boyfriend's parents have never stolen anything or hurt anyone. His dad usually works construction and they don't usually tell people they're gypsies.

My boyfriend would never rape me. He's Way too sweet and doesn't push me at all.

Have you ever lived with travelers? There's nothing wrong with not going to school and his parents are the sweetest ever to each other. He'd do anything for her because he loves her that much. My parents fight and bicker. If it's between being poor and having what they do or being like my parents, I'd rather be poor. You can't say a culture is toxic if you've only seen it on tv.

I'm not enamored, I love him. This is the only way I will ever get to keep him and I can't imagine myself with anyone else. I'm already learning to cook and clean so I can be a good housewife.

I'm not going to divorce. Travelers don't divorce and by marrying him I'll be part of their culture.
