I'VE BEEN ON A BOARD FOR OLDER PREGNANT WOMEN (JOINED BECAUSE I THOUGHT I'D HAVE ANOTHER ONE, BUT I'M NOT VERY ACTIVE THERE, BUT THAT'S BESIDE THE POINT). ANYWAYS, THERE IS A WOMAN WHO'S 25 WEEKS PREGNANT AND IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH HER BOYFRIEND'S PARENTS BECAUSE THEY ARE GREEK AND WANT HER TO NAME HER CHILD AFTER HER BOYFRIENDS FATHER BY THEIR TRADITION. THE BOYFRIEND FATHER NEVER TALKED TO HER AND BEEN RUDE DURING THE 6 YEAR RELATIONSHIP. THEY MANIPULATED HER TO TAKE HER NAME OFF THE DEED ON THE HOUSE THAT THEY SHARE WITH BF. THAT HOUSE THAT THEY BOUGHT FOR 70 GRAN IN TORONTO IS NOW WORTH 900 GRAN AND THEY ARE NOT MARRIED (HARD TO PROOF OWNERSHIP). THE RELATIONSHIP WAS ON/OFF ALL THE WHILE.
ANYWAYS, SHE'S BEEN STRUGGLING WITH NAMING OF THE BABY, WHICH THEY WANT HER TO NAME GEORGE AFTER HER BF'S FATHER, OR GEORGINA IF IT'S A GIRL. THE WOMAN IS CATHOLIC AND IN HER FAMILY IT WAS WOMEN'S PRIVILEGE TO NAME A CHILD.
SHE'S BEEN STRUGGLING WITH THAT FOR QUITE A WHILE ON THE BOARD. SOMETHING PREVENTS HER FROM PUTTING HER FOOT DOWN. SHE SAID SHE NEEDED HELP TO WITHSTAND THEM (HER BF'S FAMILY). I THOUGHT OF YOU, LADIES HERE, WHAT WONDERFUL HELP IT WOULD HAVE BEEN FOR HER. I TOLD HER TO COME TO BABYCROWD TO GET ALL THE HELP SHE NEEDS. BUT I'M NOT SURE SHE WILL. I WILL GIVE THE LINK HERE ASKING YOU TO GO AND GET FULL HELPINGS TO HER OVER THERE. SHE'S GREAT BUT SHE NEEDS SUPPORT.

Go to "General Pregnancy Questions" to read her story (her name is Kristin72, the post is "Naming the baby after the father's father")
I told her that if only I could drag these minds here over there, she'd get much better. Can we?????? ↓
