I wonder if any young person ever realized what was in their future, if they would have children ever?
I think the best anyone can hope for is that the child will be loved, reach 18, and still be reasonably sane. Jerry Johnson >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/03/03 12:02PM >>> Another Monday... Grrr... Just found out my 21 year old cousin is going to become a father in 7 months. He's not married, surfs, works intermittently as a physical trainer and is in a band (all of which is nice but pays very little). The mother (who is incredibly nice) goes to school at the community college, but is far (about 3 years) away from having a degree. He lives with his Dad outside Los Angeles and the cost of living there is insane. In other words, he's probably not ready for this and headed for some real-world situations. Too many similarities to my own life. I fell in love at that age, my girlfriend and I had a kid, then after a few tough years she ran off and I became a single father. I know this is not exactly the same situation, but... he just doesn't seem to realize this is going to be a real uphill battle. Neither did I back in 1996. The only thing that kept me from going bust was the insane job market, but he's not a programmer and the bubble is burst. While I am saying this knowing I did the same thing, why do some people insist on doing everything the hardest way they possibly can?
