[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you just give him the kid to raise on his own?[/quote]

Didn't you read what she wrote? He is committed only to work, works 60 hours a week and travels extensively. He won't commit to a relationship with OP but you think he's commit to raising a child? Do you really think he's going to change his work life to spend time with this child if she hands it over to him to raise? He will just hand off the baby again, to day and night nannies. I'm sure that someone will post that doing that would be living the dream, to them. But not exactly a great existence for the child. And I'd bet that as soon as dad tires of the novelty of playing daddy,  (assuming he'd even take the baby solo without OP), he's likely to start telling OP that his Catholic upbringing is telling him the baby really needs to be with mom....

And giving him the child does not change the fact that OP's children would have their lives upended. They'll know about the baby and wonder where the baby went (unless you think OP can hide her pregnancy and the birth from them). Or they'll have their lives rocked later when their half-sibling turns up wanting to get to know mom.
