[quote=Anonymous]Hang in there, OP. it sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders.

I'd talk to a lawyer about this. To see what your options are. If I were in your shoes I'd struggle hard to make sure my son graduates from college. Otherwise, he faces an extremely tough financial road ahead. Having babies young is a leading cause of sustained poverty. I hope his gf can do the same.

But this brings up the issue of some huge costs like daycare and health insurance. Thank God for Obamacare as your son can stay on your plan until age 26.. That benefit may NOT remain if they marry, so that's something to think about.

I'm not sure about his gf. I'm not sure if she can continue coverage on her parents' plan once she has the baby. Maybe they can cover both. Or maybe you can add the baby to yours. But these are things I'd look into now rather than later.

Many colleges have free or reduced cost daycare on campus while the parents are in classes. And Maryland at least used to have campus housing for married couples. There "are" some college options out there that are family friendly.

But a lawyer could help you with legal issues including custody, child support.  [/quote]
