My girlfriend just dropped the bomb on me last night. I saw the tests and everything. She is pregnant! I have no idea what to do. My reason for posting is, is there anyone out there that has been in a similiar situation? And how did you get out? How can I get help? I am 19, I live with friends, I don't have a job, and I smoke entirely too much pot. I already have taken the obvious steps, I quit smoking, I am looking hard for a job. But I am in so much debt myself, I don't even know how I can afford to live myself, let alone help take care of another human being. She works at Wal-Mart, and I'm pretty sure if you tell them you are pregnant you get certain benefits others don't. A raise, at least. But how can we save up money to get a place? How can I afford to get a car, get a home, and provide for myself and my girl and child? Are there grants I might be able to get from the government? What other resources are there? If anyone cares enough to help with an honest/sincere post, it would be more than appreciated. Thanks.

The best solution in your case would be one of these:

I am having a child. For dinner. With some fava beans and a nice chianti.

Hahaha, your life is over.

thanks, totse.

I am having a child. For dinner. With some fava beans and a nice chianti.

"I am having a child, with some fava beans and a nice chianti" would have been better, in my humble opinion.

Or instead opt for some commonly recognized food items that tend to go with meals, such as, oh I don't know, bread? wine? etc etc things like that so that you don't have to make it obvious with "for dinner", which kind of just made it seem like you were trying hard to make people get your joke

Hahaha, your life is over.

It's true.

He'll probably end up turning to drugs or alcohol, then beat his children while intoxicated for ruining his life.

kthx, I'll do it better next time. :)

I know a buncha people who've had kids in worse circumstances than you and didn't turn out terrible.

however they're better people than you are, you'll fail. Best thing you can do is get life insurance then kill yourself and make it look like an accident

Im not sure, but i think the goverment will give you a grant, though it wont be much.
either put it up for adoption, which your girlfriend might not like, or give it to one your parents to look after. at the very least ask your parents to help you in some way. just keep in mind what would be best for the child.

man, i feel for you so badly. I had a scare a few months ago and i was depressed.

If i was you, i would MAKE her get an abortion. Failing that i would get her to take as many drugs as possible, coke, alcohol, pot and she could have a miscarriage. Failing that i would just tell her im having nothing to do with it and then punch her in the stomach when she was really drunk and pased out. (a little bit extreme but hey, do what u gotta do lol)

Failing that i would flee.

Do your parents know?

#aHo.

kthx, I'll do it better next time. :)


damn it now I feel all bad like I was lecturing you (in public, no less)

I really really REALLy should have preceeded it with "Not to be a hair-splitting cunt"

No, my parents dont know. My father is the only one still living, and i dont think he would help much. He will probably just tell me good fucking job and now i have to deal with the consequences. I just dont know what to do. we are considering adoption, but we still want to try to make things work. I am also worried because she got really drunk, somewhere around 6 or 7 shots of whiskey the other night, all before she found out she was pregnant. can getting drunk one time affect the baby? i just dont know where i can find a good paying job and still be close to home with my girl... and her parents are broke as shit so i dont think they can help.

ABORTION YOU DUMB FUCK. AAAAABBBBBBBBOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTIIIIIIIIONNN NNNNNNNNNNNNNN.




Get a loan to pay for it. Dont have a child and GIVE IT AWAY what the fucking fuck is wrong with you.

The Dept. of Human Services has programs for pregnant (unmarried, I think)girls and their babies and it is called WIC here. Check with them

1. You need to take responsibility for this.

2. You need give up all your play-time to find a half-decent job within the next six months, and make a good, lasting impression there, and be on time, and work hard there like you mean it. Save every penny for first and last month rent.

3. Once you've secured a half-decent job, and accumulated first and last month's rent, you need to get some references together to secure low-class housing, at least as a temporary measure.

4. Be serious, and realize that the first third of your life is now over, whether you like it or not. Be a man, and accept responsibility for your actions now.

5. Don't think about the problems you'll have tomorrow, because each day is sufficient for its own problems. Concentrate on today, and make the most out of every day you have to prepare the way for the one you brought into this world.

Google to see your benefits, don't be a baby killer and get an abortion like the one dumb-fuck said. You will also have to live with the guilt of abortion for the rest of your life too. But anyways, google your gov. benefits, if your 19, there's plenty of good jobs that pay good for being age 18. Hell, be a waiter or a bar tender dude. That's okay money for the time being, and while doing that, I'd do some online college courses and get a degree then you'll absolutely fine and nothing to worry about.

a half decent response. this is my plan, saving up everything i earn for the kid. now what do you mean, get some references for low-class housing? where is there low class housing and why would i need references to get into one? and about WIC...how can i apply for stuff from them? or, my girlfriend rather? i actually live down the street from the deptarment of human resources so...should we just walk in the door and ask what information we can get?

Yea, at least sell it.
I changed my mind. This is clearly the best option :D.

Ok first of all. TOTSEANS GROW UP FOR A SECOND. This guy has come to that stage of life that requires a very serious attitude. Just imagine for a second that you somehow had a girlfriend. Somehow screwed her and somehow, she got pregnant. Now, this is ACTUALLY HAPPENING to Whitaker and he needs advice. The Totse community has a few gems of people who will always genuinly help. Personally im only 17 and even though ive had to buy a pregnancy test or 3 in fear for my girlfriend, ive been lucky.

Mate, first things first. DEFINATLY go visit your human resources department. Government services like that are designed to help people. Even if they arnt specifically what you need they will definatly know the correct people you should be talking to.

Seeing as your parents and your girlfriends parents wont be helping out puts a lot more responsibility on yourself. However by your attitude in other posts I hope to think your taking this the way it should be taken. I think thats all the advice I can give right now, good luck mate.

And people, this is a reality check, take something from it. Use a condom.

Seriously, abortion.

It's not even sentient yet. Just think of it as late contraception.

-deus-

First off, don't even think about getting married. If you break up, it's a bigger pain in the ass to get a divorce than it is to decide custody & child support and move your shit out of the apartment. Single, pregnant girls also get better benefits than married couples because it's calculated by income.

Your girlfriend needs to file for both WIC and food stamps. Cut down on eating out A LOT. Learn to cook. After you do that, take the money you're saving on food every month and save it for when the baby comes. Look for sales on things like diapers, bottles, ect. Look on craigslist for things like car seats and cribs. If you're moving in together, craiglist also works for cheap or free furniture. Your girlfriend will probably get a shit ton of baby clothes from friends and family. However, most of it will only be for new born or 1-3 months sizes. If you buy baby clothes on your own before the baby comes, buy bigger sizes.

Expect and prepare for the worst. After the baby comes, expect sex to all but stop. You will both be cranky and fight all the time, but keep in mind that you also have a child together and should be working towards a common goal instead of against each other.

To those who have taken my concern seriously, thank you. So, I need to start saving up. Thats obvious. What if we decided to live together? Can she still get benefits for being single and pregnant? (that is, if no one knows we are living together) And how does one apply for food stamps or WIC? Both at the Department of Human Resources?

Falcon punch FTW

Surprise Buttsecks.

Leave the country, say goodbye to debts and fatherhood.

"I am having a child, with some fava beans and a nice chianti" would have been better, in my humble opinion.

Anyone who doesn't know that Hannibal joke doesn't need to understand it anyway.

You're fucked. Next time use protection ^_^.

I am also worried because she got really drunk, somewhere around 6 or 7 shots of whiskey the other night, all before she found out she was pregnant. can getting drunk one time affect the baby?

Baby is prob dead bro....if not kill yourself and have someone post the video on youtube!

Seirously though you gotta consider if your going to college you are seriously ruining the rest of your life ENTIRELY by having this child.

Get an abortion seriously or you will ruin your life

You're fucked. Next time use protection ^_^.

LOL, next time?

It's funny, because there is no next time.

I believe the fava beans and chianti bit is from hannibal lector, so changing it to wine or bread ruins the reference.

Fuck it, OP, you don't need this shit, make her have an abortion, even if you have to slip morning after pills in her food. Fuck, just box the girls belly, no matter what happens you aint going to get banged up for more than 18 years. Think about it. If the babby gets born demand proof that its your before you pay a penny. If you feel up to it, I know a nice doctor in tijuana, wink wink.

Don't buy baby stuff until you are 100% certain you are going to have a child. Save money for buying it, but don't buy anything yet.

What qualifications do you have? That will assist posters in suggesting jobs.

1) Get a job. Now. Doesn't matter what. Just get A job. after you get a job, you can look for a better one.
2) Find somewhere for the two of you to live. If you live together, your gf won't be able to get gov't benefits, and if you get discovered for faking it, you'll get buttfucked. Apply for food stamps and welfare, though.
3) Save your money! Sell some shit on ebay or something.

No use lecturing the OP on irresponsibility. He done fucked up. Now, for the rest of you...WEAR A FUCKING CONDOM when you're doinkin' girls, and if you have a girlfriend, get her on the pill. AND still use a condom.

as a matter of fact i am extremely unqualified in every way... for anything. i am a drop out. one prospect i have is the possibility of getting my diploma still. i had enough credits when i left school, and the county i am in has a program where you take and pass the GED and you get a high school diploma. not just a GED, but a REAL diploma. i was considering military...but i hate everything, and i mean LOATHE everything to do with the military. i especially dont want to become the gov's property. but if it means raising my kid as opposed to losing them, its something i would definitely consider. ive thought about becoming a CDL truck driver, but i dont know how i could handle being away from home so often...and after my child is born, i would have to continue hitting the road and being gone for long periods of time.

Buttsex could have avoided this problem completely.

The FINAL solution.

You don't get out of it, you sly cunt. Just be there for her, and depending if you's are old enough to have a kid, just go by that, Unless your a bad father/father figure

Abortion.

We did.

pwnd!

Don't listen to that guy who said you would 'have to live with the guilt of abortion.' Some people never feel the guilt.

I've read studies (if you're seriously interested, you can search for them yourself -- but I've found that most people don't pay attention to them anyway, so I'm not going to bother giving you a clickable green link) -- studies that say consciousness, actual non-animal function, only arises several weeks or months after birth. You aren't committing murder. And even if you were, the idea that murder is wrong is a preconception that most people never even consider, they just blindly accept. Yes, I'm completely serious.

Abortion is always an option. Don't let anyone persuade you otherwise.

I believe the fava beans and chianti bit is from hannibal lector, so changing it to wine or bread ruins the reference.



Maybe so; although I was under the impression that nukerabbit was trying to pull a double entendre and not necessarily making a reference to that movie.

Besides, not everybody watches movies. However pretty much everybody is capable of associating having bread and wine with meals so I still (humbly!) believe mine was probably better.

LOL, next time?

It's funny, because there is no next time.



False.

He can have this one kid, then another one, if not more.

Anyone who doesn't know that Hannibal joke doesn't need to understand it anyway.

That bit was a tad too circular for my taste.

I don't know/understand the Hannibal joke, which it means I don't need to understand it?

wtf u on bro?

Besides, not everybody watches movies.

I had this scare once, but it was false thank god.

But yeah my mind was set on the plan of action. Airforce.



Like I normally wouldn't do it, but comeon. $400 a week in just pocket cash for everything that isn't living expenses, they already provide all healthcare, housing, etc. etc. That's so good compared to what your situation is. It'll give you a great deal of stability, you'll look good, and maybe your bumass might do something like get a career out of it, learn an important job trade (computers, mechanic, a lot more) from it, you might make it a career, it will pay for your college, you know the good stuff.

If you have the energy to go get a job, try to get an apartment, and just overall trying to 'make it work'... I'd just go to the airforce man. Easy jobs. Nice house. Nice Money. Nice life.

Do yourself a favor and consider that. I'd forego college and a job for the Airforce if I knocked a woman up.

It's been said before, but you haven't responded to it: ABORTION

If your beliefs say otherwise, however, you should try and contact Jackketch. If any Totsean knows shit about surprise pregnancies and child-rearing in a less than prepared environment, he's your man.

Truck drivers can make serious money ($200,000 +) if they work for themselves or they come to Australia and work with mining. The problem is you will need money to pay for down payments on loans. If you plan on never getting sophisticated qualifications then truck driving is a possibility. Even if you work for someone else initially you will be getting experience in trucking and earning money for a down payment on a truck.

But you said you didn't want to be away from your family...

Following what Jojoman says is a good idea. Join the air force. You cannot be guaranteed the job you want in the air force, but apart from security police and ADGs (or American equivalent) none are combat jobs so you won't be the government's tool.

If you really want to figure out what to do, you should talk to your girlfriend, not totse. That's really the only way that you'll be able to solve any problems.

All seriousness aside: http://www.intternetti.net/~jiri/motivation/Falcon%20Punch.jpeg

1. You need to take responsibility for this.

2. You need give up all your play-time to find a half-decent job within the next six months, and make a good, lasting impression there, and be on time, and work hard there like you mean it. Save every penny for first and last month rent.

This. Don't be a fucking pussy

...should we just walk in the door and ask what information we can get?Definitely. If a resource doesn't cost you anything to check it out, then you need to check it out. Walk right in and ask to discuss. Bring a pen and paper to make notes.

You're screwed and looking at a future ward of the state son.

And that means getting the fuck off here and working toward a future for your new family.

Personally im only 17 and even though ive had to buy a pregnancy test or 3 in fear for my girlfriend, ive been lucky... Use a condom.

Take your own advice, retard.

i dont understand what the big deal is, why dont u just toss the baby to your parents, let em hold on to it for a few years and you can take the reigns when ur ready or even helpout a bit. itd be like having a brother only its your son.

between the 2 of you there could be at up to 4 sets of parents you could toss the baby at.

srsly, unless u r an orphan or your parents hate you for some reason, 10 months from now it wont be thaat bad.

Hahaha, you're fucked. Stupid asshole.

Move to a trailer. Watch lots of Trailer Park Boys, so you can learn to be poor, but have a good time doing it.

...Or you could help her out by getting her to find another, older dude with a good job. Then before she starts showing: pretend the kid is his.

Problem (for you) = solved.

shoot her 6inches above her vag

Mozel Tov.

I would not usually recommend this, but I have to agree with some of the other posters in thinking about abortion. There is just too much teen pregnancy in the world today, and I don't know of many instances where it turns out really well for the parents or child.

Talk to her and ask her what she thinks. You can exert pressure yourself to help. It's your life also. She should take into account that this is your life as well as hers, and affects you also.

Some womem have a tendecy to center in around themselves, and loose sight of the big picture. Yes, it's her body. but it's 50-percent of you, and therefore fifty-percent of your responsibility.

If she agrees to the abortion, follow through with it, and next time(s): https://www.rubbersbymail.com/images/condoms/Trojan_Extended_Pleas_LRG.jpg

If she chooses to only think of herself, then this should solve a a lot of your problems:http://i473.photobucket.com/albums/rr94/WINDOWS-ME/running6.gif

(That is said in a semi-joking mode, but be sure to keep it on the table as an option).

Good Luck(seriously), and let us know what course of action that you decide on.

Your own fault for not wearing a condom, therefore I don't give a fuck. You ruined your life, maybe you will think twice next time.

shit, hes having a CHILD, not some horrific demon spawn from hell waiting to scractch his eyes out after he squirms his way out of the demonwomb.

Google to see your benefits, don't be a baby killer and get an abortion like the one dumb-fuck said. You will also have to live with the guilt of abortion for the rest of your life too.

That's okay money for the time being, and while doing that, I'd do some online college courses and get a degree then you'll absolutely fine and nothing to worry about.

Fuck this bitch, get an abortion. You cant take care of a kid, you cant, I cant, no one can. Plus its not like there is a shortage of children.

But yeah my mind was set on the plan of action. Airforce.



What would the airforce say if i had done acid a handful of times? let alone all the other shit i have done...

and as of right now she is thinking about adoption. and honestly, i feel worse about adoption than keeping it myself. i read a lot of statistics about adopted children. and people say that its the most unselfish choice, or rather, its selfish to keep the baby when you could let someone better capable of taking care of them adopt the child. but i feel like it would be selfish of me to let the responsibility up to someone else, instead of take care of my own child, my own flesh and blood. i dont know if me and the kids mom could work out. i know we could try, and i would want to, but i dont know for sure if i would marry her.

What would the airforce say if i had done acid a handful of times? let alone all the other shit i have done...


As long as you don't still do it.

But seriously, if you want to really try and make it work, have a respectable career, and have a good base for the rest of your life... Airforce.

As stated, through your circumstances, the first 3rd of your life is now over man. If I were in the same boat I'd totally forgo finding a career at like a factory, construction, or anything that might pay good because it's all bullshit work. The Airforce would be good for me because of all the different careers it offers. Plus you can pick to get stationed like anywhere there's a base.

My best friend's cousin lives in Germany, drives a BMW and has his own place. Everything is payed for, his only bill that isn't covered by the air force is his car insurance, cell phone, beer, and cig bill; $800 every 2 weeks of just cash. He goes to work everyday to the Airforce base and straight assembles missiles in like an anti static suit. And the best part about it is that he's only 20 and graduated in 07 but yet he's set for life.

But yeah talk to a recruiter or atleast look at the website. You would totally save yourself a lot of bullshit in the long run. And the best part about it is if you decide to not continue with them after 4 years, they'll pay for you to go to college.

But yeah best of luck to you man, do the right thing. Maybe it'll all workout, you'll be set for life, and being in the military brings nothing but respect from everybody you know.

shit, hes having a CHILD, not some horrific demon spawn from hell waiting to scractch his eyes out after he squirms his way out of the demonwomb.

He's 19. Stop being such a dickless fuckhead and realize that existing life is more important than some fetus that hasn't even learnt to think yet.

being in the military brings nothing but respect from everybody you know.

I fought in 'Nam, man.

I fought in 'Nam, man.

Exactly, I used to work with a guy named 'Tex' who was in Nam and he told me all the cool shit. He used to call in airstrikes like it was nothing. He'd throw a smoke grenade and radio to drop the bomb like 150 yards north of the marker.

He told me he went to some shack and there was just a guy sitting there stirring something in a pot all sketchy. And then he stood up and was sitting on 2 grenades and they shot him before they blew up. He then told me the shit he was cooking was apparently opium and he took it, took apart a softball, put the opium inside, and sewed it back up and got it through customs in LA. It lasted him 2 years apparently.

But yeah I had nothing but respect for the man and I only worked with him 2 weeks.

He's 19. Stop being such a dickless fuckhead and realize that existing life is more important than some fetus that hasn't even learnt to think yet.



.

yes, im the dickless fuckhead because i realize that inconviencing an existing life is more important and destroying the promulgation of your seed. i hope your next kid is born blind, deaf, with stubs for arms and legs, and with down syndrome and youd sit there and think about how the one u aborted could have cured cancer or something.

haha im just kidding, abort the shit outa that shit yo.

ok everyone, the airforce thing sounded like a really good idea, but ive got news for yall. before i even looked it up, i heard that there is no way you can join the airforce if you have done acid. then, i looked it up, and they said that just "drug use" is often grounds for disqualification. so im most definitely not qualified. any other ideas?

You're dumb. Just say "no" when they ask you if you have ever done acid. There's no possible way they can even know you have done it short of a spinal tap or some bullshit.

And that's just official policy. They wouldn't care either way. Especially if you're a smart kid. If you score good (which is impossible not to do, I was eligible for fucking intelligence jobs) they'll want you anyways.

Dude just call a recruiter in the morning and don't even say a fucking thing about acid or even smoking weed, they wont even ask.

maybe dude... im a little nervous to do so because i dont know what kind of consequences i would be facing if i got busted by them somehow. but it seems like one of the best options. although, i must add, i have always disliked the military. not the troops, just their ads and how forceful they are on teens especially in schools and what not. but thats irrelevant. but i havent like most people i have met in the military to say, not one actually. i think its the personality type that the military attracts. but there are many exceptions. i just dont think i would get along with the average soldier to say, as well. but all besides the point, you think im good to just get join and get going without speaking of my drug use again?

All you're really going to get is a drug test either before or during basic. As I said, they don't fucking care as long as you don't do it when in the military basically. Like it shouldn't even be a problem. And the fact there's no way to prove you have done acid. Don't be such a sketchball about it dude.

http://airforce.com/opportunities/enlisted/careers/

Just look at those. All different jobs you can have. If you're looking for stability when having this baby the military pays soooo much money it's not funny.

I would probably be in the military right now except the fact there's a 4 year commitment and that shit just doesn't fly with me because I'm still young and all. But dude you're having a kid and shit and now is your time to grow up. It'd probably be the easiest for you just to do the airforce, it sets you up for life. Like if you went in for a computer job you could get out of the military in 4 years and work a normal job doing the same exact thing.

There's actually a military forum on this website, go make a thread and ask if you think it's that much of a problem.

I don't really know man, there shouldn't be anything holding you back from joining unless you're gay or have flat feet.

If you got busted by them, the worst they could do is not recruit you. Or discharge you. If you're worried about being arrested, you can only be arrested if they actually catch you in possession of the substance. You can't get busted for just having something in your system unless you're operating a vehicle or machine and your last encounter was relatively recent.

You could be talking about something else entirely.

I wonder, can they detect LSD in your system, as I hear it's stored in body fat for long periods of time, and that a release of this storage triggers relapses of the drug's effects even without taking it, in some cases.

You're certainly in a tough position. I wouldn't do abortion, I'm morally against that kind of thing, and that suggestion has gotten nowhere for several pages (but if it's the only possible way out, but I think there's got to be a way here). Apply for food stamps and a federal grant. A little is better than nothing. I'd enroll in an online high school to get your diploma that way. I'd also do manual labor where available. Work as a dude for hire. Sadly, the housing market is in the tank, so construction is no longer an option. Just use your brute strength for a while, and do an online high school at the same time. I'd ask a doctor or Yahoo Answers! about your girlfriend getting drunk.

I feel really bad about your situation. I hope it all works out OK.

She won't. I know a girl who is 5ish months pregnant who regularly does meth, drinks, and smokes. She already has 2 kids.

What a stupid person. You should inform her of the risk of fetal alcohol syndrome and if she doesn't listen, you should punch her in the face.

Hey? The next generation of effed-up posters have to come from somewhere!

If the US recession is anything like the UK recession, then temp work and low-skill jobs just dried up. The armed forces sound like a great option. I thought that they required a diploma in the US, or at least the GED. The UK is considerig relaxing its entry requirements. Anyone know? It's a serious last resort though.

My girlfriend just dropped the bomb on me last night. I saw the tests and everything. She is pregnant! I have no idea what to do. My reason for posting is, is there anyone out there that has been in a similiar situation? And how did you get out? How can I get help? I am 19, I live with friends, I don't have a job, and I smoke entirely too much pot. I already have taken the obvious steps, I quit smoking, I am looking hard for a job. But I am in so much debt myself, I don't even know how I can afford to live myself, let alone help take care of another human being. She works at Wal-Mart, and I'm pretty sure if you tell them you are pregnant you get certain benefits others don't. A raise, at least. But how can we save up money to get a place? How can I afford to get a car, get a home, and provide for myself and my girl and child? Are there grants I might be able to get from the government? What other resources are there? If anyone cares enough to help with an honest/sincere post, it would be more than appreciated. Thanks.

Sorry dude. I'm sure if you knuckle down to it you'll be fine.

Sorry dude. I'm sure if you knuckle down to it you'll be fine.

And how often (not that statistics prove/disprove the chances of an individual case) do teen parents work out in Jolly Old? Land of the Teen Pregnancies? Many such cases do work out...not near as many as don't though. No?

There's absolutely nothing wrong with having a child.

I feel really bad about your situation. I hope it all works out OK.

thanks, dude. station. well, it is a hard decision to make. the air force requires you to "become part of something bigger than yourself" and the more i look to it, the more i despise it. i know that its what is best for my kid and myself, but i just dont like the idea. and maybe i am just paranoid, i just wouldnt want to go to fed prison or something for getting somehow "found out" later on. i heard that if you are in the military and you get busted smoking pot, you can face years, even the rest of your military term in prison. so air force has a thing where i can get out after four years? this is a fact? i wonder man...this is starting to sound like my only option. and yes, if everyone hasnt figured it out yet, we arent going to get an abortion. we are both opposed to that idea. id rather give the kid to parents who cant have children then kill it during its growth. dont even bother responding to what i just said, this isnt a thread about abortion and we arent going to argue the point. this is our personal decision. i thought to myself, "why the fuck are you asking TOTSE for help right now?" but it was already done. i knew i would get flamed and get waste replies but some of you have been very helpful and positive. so thanks again totse commune!

She won't listen. I think it would be better for the baby if I punched her in the stomach, but I don't want to go to jail.

This girl is the epitome of white trash. She is 22, and this is her 5th pregnancy. She has a 6 year old daughter (by her boyfriend), a miscarriage (by her boyfriend's dad), a baby that died (her boyfriend's brother's), a 2 year old (supposedly her boyfriend's), and this current pregnancy (from some guy at work who is married with 2 kids himself).

The two kids that are still alive were taken away and put into foster care for a while because the "dad" (her boyfriend is stupid enough to think that all of the kids are his) was accused of molesting them.

Dude that's just their policy... Probably going to happen if you're dumb and smoke pot while in the service. Other than that they don't fucking care at all.

There's no test to detect LSD (unless you recently did it, like 2 days) short of a fucking spinal tap.

You sign up for the military in terms man. You finish your 4 years and you have a choice, whether to re enlist or just get a job. And the best part about it... all those careers preps you for something you can do afterwords.

Lol dude call a recruiter and be like "I did acid can I join the military?" and he will say "Uhh I don't care sure."

It's not a big deal.



And all the "Become part of something bigger than yourself" is just a bunch of propaganda bullshit. If you want to buy into it you can, or you can go into the airforce for the sole reason other people go... to get money. You can just leave after 4 years if you don't like it. It's just a good job man not a life long commitment.

Just call a recruiting office.

I'd ask a doctor or Yahoo Answers! about your girlfriend getting drunk.

Never take advice from Yahoo Answers.

If you don't mind being a bit active then firefighter looks like a good job.

Wait until she's giving birth in the deliverying room, then as soon as the baby comes out take out a gun and shoot the fucker, then kill your girlfriend and delivery doctors and whoever else is in the room, then shoot yourself.

Hey, i'm having one too!

*ung ung yeah ah shit yeah*

drop the baby off at a hospital.

drop the baby off at a hospital.

See if your state does anything like this (http://www.asafehavenfornewborns.com/).

ok everyone, the airforce thing sounded like a really good idea, but ive got news for yall. before i even looked it up, i heard that there is no way you can join the airforce if you have done acid. then, i looked it up, and they said that just "drug use" is often grounds for disqualification. so im most definitely not qualified. any other ideas?

Dont make excuses/be a dumbass. All you have to do is be clean and sober for several months before they test you. Not difficult. Unless youre a worthless piece of shit.

More importantly, you girl has not been pregnant long my man. Ultimately, unless you definitely want this kid, abortion is the best option. You are not killing anything at this stage. You need to man up to this problem. Of course, dont forget that the choice is ultimately your lady's. So as far as abortion give her your honest opinion, offer to help her pay for it (personally I would offer to totally pay for it, wrap your crap dude) and then go from there.

Adoption would be my second choice. You simply do not seem able to care for your potential child.

Raising your child? Well, you have that advice already.
