Will tells Maggie he can’t trust her after pregnancy deception
DEIDRE SAYS: Dear Maggie, You took a risk by trying to get pregnant without your boyfriend’s support – and now you face the very real prospect of bringing your baby up alone.
Being a single parent is hard work and certainly no walk in the park, so please carefully consider if you are ready for this lifelong commitment.
It is time to be honest with your boyfriend and explain you had hoped he would come around to the idea of becoming a parent. Understandably, he is angry and resentful but in time he may accept - or even embrace - being a dad.
If he decides he doesn’t want to be a part of your life any more, he would still need to contribute to the baby’s upbringing.
Families Need Fathers () will help you both. And my support pack Unplanned Pregnancy will help you consider your options.
