school help: Is it my time to be mother? - Help.com

Is it my time to be mother?

I spent 10 years in my country, waiting for a visa or green card to move over here. now i am here and nothing seems to be like i tought. so, now i am working very hard to keep myself. my mother told me not to continue going to college, cause anyway, it wasn’t going to work in usa. now, i am trying to get into, but, i couldn’t yet. my transcritions are not ready yet, from the country i come from. i feel very bad about it, cause i belive in education. but, i hope i will get it next period.
My boyfriend and i have a serious relationship, but both of us are just hard worker with not savings. and after one year, he wants me to give him a baby. i have my mother in the same city i live, but i don’t have a good relationship with her. i am 30 years old. that makes me think it’s reason to try now.
should i wait? should i give up, and have my baby?
should i be strong and keep saying no, to him?
is it late to think in school?
is a family what i need?

If you cannot financially support a baby, you should not have a child. Full stop. No questions. Babies cost a lot of money and it seems as though you are struggling along as it is. To bring another life you cannot support is cruel.

If you can support another person (remembering you will be off work for a while) then it is a decision only you can make really.

I wouldn’t. You need more stability in your life. Financial and relationship wise. Finish your education which will allow you to have at least the financial end of it .A baby now, may only cause more stress, and financial headache. Chances are if you have a baby now, your probibility of going back to school won’t be good. If he loves you he will wait until your ready. Now to me just isn’t a good time. Just give this some more thought . Good luck :)

No you have a lot of time left Really , make your education your priority for now. Then if your wish to have a child, you will have the means to take care of it.

to began with i would tell you that your boyfriend or lover isn’t conciderate he should care to see that you have goals and dreams and should be pushing you towards them. i love children but for me i do not think they fit into my life today. if perchance i get any well thanks b. and if i don’t get the time to have on adoption is an option i am willing to look into. but you see i am young. and 30 isn’t that old. talk to him and tell him of your dreams.

He used to agree with me, and as he has some college, too. He told me to make plans for a better condition. but, now, i don’t understand.

He probably feels ready to startt a life with you. You’ve finally got your green card and I’m sure you have a home. I’d imagine he’s ready for a family regardless of how hard it’ll be he probably feels he can handle it just for a family. Be patient with him he probably has a different version of how your live’s will complete one another.
I believe you have the right idea and wait a little while longer. What’s most important I believe is that you have to be ready. Regardless of what anyone else thinks. Do you feel that you would be enough for your baby or that you have enough to give your baby. If you have a loving a supportive family and they should understand how you feel about how you decide to bring a life into this world. School opens up a new world and brand new opportunities maybe you should begin by taking a few classes and see how you feel then. Who knows with enough support you may find that you could possibly do both. I’ve heard it been done before.
