The story

My confession.

Well

I’m 14, newly 14. I recently have had a baby. Titus, is what I named him, no one knows. No one thinks that he’s mine, I’ve been just saying he’s my mom’s, she’s absolutely pissed about it but she loves him. I just cant hold it in, telling people he’s not my baby and that I feel the longer I tell people he’s not mine the more he will think that I’m not his mother. I refused to stay at the hospital for the 3 days because I would’ve missed school and it would’ve been suspicious. So I went, literally eating pain medicine for lunch and breakfast. I have to pump everyday before and after school, I do this because He is tongue tied and breastfeeding him is difficult. The father doesn’t know yet, and I don’t think he ever will. What do I do?

I must express my concerns regarding this peculiar situation; one cannot simply brush it under the rug. At 14, maintaining such a significant secret is rather daunting, don't you think??? Though I understand the complexities involved, it's crucial to "face the music." I remember when I faced my own challenging circumstances, and honesty truly paved the way for resolution. Communicating openly, especially with the father, might provide assistance and support; As they say, two heads are better than one, right? I gently urge you to reconsider your current approach. It's vital to act in the best interest of your son.

honestly, this situation sounds really tough and i can’t completely agree with how it’s being handled?? i get you're in a difficult spot, but trust me, keeping things under wraps like this can create a snowball effect!!! when i was going through my own intense situation, i found that communicating openly was challenging but essential. i wonder how you’re dealing with the emotional and logistical complexities of this??? seems like it’d be overwhelming in the long run. the reality of parenting is incredibly daunting, and trying to juggle school too?? that’s gotta be intense. i believe addressing the issue head-on, however trying that might be, could actually provide clarity and relieve some of the burden?? just my take, but i hope you find a way forward that brings peace.
