To stay or to go

I am the boyfriend. I understand that she is frustrated and wants a good home for the family. I want the same! I don't want to stay here! I am trying to balnce making this place as comfortable as possible, and looking for a better place. That can be tough! Fiding an apartment for our income can be tough, especially when you are moving 100 miles away. All in all I admit we both have had our part in not staying focused on the task, but that needs to be priority. I think we need to stick together for the good and the bad. it might not be much, but we have food, water, electricity, cold storage, washer, dryer, heat, roof, heat, running hot/cold water with kitchen & shower, all the basic needs are being provided. Here's looking toward better days, making the best of an undesirable situation, making each day count, and moving towards a better life.

Sounds like your issue is more with your boyfriend than where you live. You seem to want your kids to have a better life than what you have, but your boyfriend doesn't seem to. You can't change him and it wouldn't be fair to try. On the other hand, it sounds you two may have been compatible without kids, but probably aren't now that kids have entered the picture. Once we become parents, our first responsibility becomes our kids. Both of you have that responsibility though, so both of you have to decide what is best for them. That responsibility doesn't change just because you decide to take the kids away from the trailor, even if you are doing it "for their own good." So do what you feel you have to do as far as living arrangements, but remember that kids need to know their father as well as their mother, and it isn't in their best interest if one robs them of the other. Of course, that is assuming that you and the father want to be in the child's life. If you move out and take the child, you both have a new responsibility of making sure your child gets time with daddy, and not just for "fun weekends", but to be part of the child's life. That would go for him to if he was the one moving out with the child. Whatever you do, make sure that the choice is made with your child's needs are at heart, not just your own wants. I hope for nothing but the best for you and your child.
