I've been thinking, how are we going to juggle everything once the baby comes?
well first we need to decide if we're keeping the baby or putting it up for adoption
gasps What?! Are you serious right now? We can't just give our own flesh and blood away!
do we really want to raise it though? we both have very demanding jobs already
takes a deep breath GameGlamour, I understand your concerns, but we made a commitment to each other and to this baby.
i don't think we should raise it
stands up, tears welling up in her eyes How could you even say that? Don't you care about our child at all?
of course i do...i just think it'd be better for the child to be adopted by two people who aren't already working full time 40+ hour weeks
voice trembling GameGlamour, I can't believe you would suggest giving our child away like that.
...or...we could get daycare and i could take paternity leave for a month after it's born...or i could work remotely sometimes
sits back down, wipes away tears That...that might work. It's worth considering anyway.
i'll talk to my boss about working remotely sometimes, and look into daycare options for when i'm at the office
puts her hand on GameGlamour's Thank you, GameGlamour. I appreciate you being willing to make adjustments for our child.
