I think I may not be a grandmother any time soon. Kev called yesterday and said they think his girlfriend is miscarrying. So we shall see. But she obviously very much wants another child, and has chosen him to father it. So unless he becomes a little uncooperative, I guess fatherhood is his destiny. At least next time he will know what the game is.
I think my son has a lot of growing up to do before he should become a father. And I don't like the idea that she was trying to get pregnant while he thought they were having a fun sexual relationship. So I will be glad if he gets a chance to go into this by choice.
Kevin has more on his plate than he can deal with. He is struggling to support just himself with his first job, he has some kind of digestive tract problem that causes him chronic pain, and he is still dealing with probation issues from an old drunk driving arrest. He does not need the responsibility of either a child or a wife and child. He will most likely crumble under the weight of it.
Sara, Maybe this was the wake up call he needs. Perhaps it will let him grow up some and see the errors of his ways, and that he needs to take reponsibility for his ownself before he can care for a child.
I'm sure you have mixed emotions about the miscarriage, but as they say things will work themselves out.
