[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your niece's parents are wretched people. No way would Jesus approve.

[b]Why can't she live with you?[/b] Do you live in a one bedroom with a kid already? Does she do drugs and do you have an impressionable preteen or teenager?

If not, I think you should let her live with you.[/quote]

[b]Well, just off the very top of my head, because she's been wild for the last three or four years and I don't know what kind of influence she's going to be on our impressionable young kids, and equally because DH and I planned our family size. We did not plan to have two more people join our family when we planned how many children we'd have, when we planned that I would stay home, etc.[/b] [/quote]

You are right to be worried.   Having a wild, 15 year old niece that wants to keep her baby with no parental or baby father support, who doesn't just want to come and stay with you for a few days while she thinks things through, but actually wants to come and "live" with you and raise her baby is a[b] very impulsive move on your niece.  [/b]
Some people take relatives in and it becomes disastrous because of family drama issues, etc.

This could be a really difficult situation to handle if your niece cannot return to her parents.  Just because she is family, doesn't mean that you are in the financial or emotional position to take her in on a long term basis.
