[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 550064, member: 1514"] I would worry about a baby too. I know it seems like having sons that I dont have as much of a reason to worry but hey, I have 4 grandchildren! Cory gave me my first and when I found out I was sick. Mad as fire. He had only known this girl about 3 months if that and she was known to be a loose woman. Cory was thrilled though. Cory so wanted to follow in his fathers footsteps..sigh. Well Cory turned 20 a month after Keyana was born and he was in no shape to help financially take care of the baby very much. He only got a small amount of SSI because he lived at home with us. He tried very hard to take physical care of the baby but it was a learning experience. Thankfully he did live with us for the first year of her life so he learned how to care for a child, especially an infant. He became very good but we were here for when he needed help like the first time the baby choked or ran a fever and he didnt know what to do. Things new parents need help with. The second time he had a child, just last September, we told him flat out that this was HIS baby and we wouldnt be stepping in to help him like we had with his first one. We wouldnt be buying all the diapers, wipes, clothes, and watching her every time he simply got tired of being around her. Well guess what? He stepped up to the plate amazingly. We only keep her when we ask to have her over though I did keep her the other night because Mandy had a tooth pulled. We hadnt bought any diapers until two weeks ago when Cory called me from work and asked me to go get some diapers because Mandy was stuck at home without a car and she was out. He told me to get the smallest pack and he would pay me back. I told him not to worry about it, I could afford one pack. Of course we buy some snacks for the baby when she is at our house and I buy toys for her. Im a grandma. I hit up ebay for a bunch of winter stuff but they dont ask me or expect it from me.
