    Hello, I’m an independent 23 years old. I live by myself in an apartment with one roommate. I am self support, I have a job, I don’t have debt, I have reliable car and I considered myself a middle class people. I got pregnant with my 36 years old boyfriend. He got house and everything but he supports a lot of people in the family and he decide to terminate the pregnancy because of financial problems. I do want to raise the kid , make them grow and see them happy, but however I don’t want this kid born unwanted, my love alone won’t be enough for the kid since nobody want them. This is sad, my heart is breaking in pieces.
