What advice should I give to a friend who's girlfriend says he owes her a kid?

She says it's been all about him [his career] for 13 years, and so he owes her a kid.





He's expressed great reluctance in being a dad.What advice should I give to a friend who's girlfriend says he owes her a kid?
Tell him that a box of condoms is cheaper than 18 years of child support, especially since he is not ready to be a daddy! And tell him to give her the boot!!!





She chose to stay with him and that is her problem, not his (but to be equally fair, if he didn't want to marry her or have children with her, he should have made that clear years ago!). He does not owe her a kid and now that he knows she wants one so badly, he can't trust her not to deliberately get pregnant on her own. That is why he must give her the boot (no more sex) or sometime in the next year or so, he is going to get the news, ';congratulations, you are a father!';





Take care!What advice should I give to a friend who's girlfriend says he owes her a kid?
Tell him that she is right. If he is not ready to have a kid (and he knew she wanted one) that it is not fair to string her along for 13 years and nothing.
If he doesn't want kids, she'll have to get over it. Having a child is a two party decision and you don't owe someone a kid in exchange for support. She gave him that with him presumably under the assumption that it was from the kindness of her heart. Now she's taking it all back and saying she wants payment. A child, a living being, a child, is not like monetary value. He owes her nothing but his gratitude.
If he wants a child and she doesn't, they won't end up staying together. She wants children, he doesn't. This should have been discussed before they even made it official. Either she gives up her dream of having a child. Or he gives up his dream of being that man with no kids forever. Relationships=sacrifices, especially when you don't make sure that you both want the same thing.
Then they shouldnt have gotten out of the relantionship a long time ago


two ppl cant work together if they dont want the same things out of life...





my bf and i are in the same situation i want a family soon he does not...


we both know its gonna have to end at some point
a boyfriend for 13yrs? Why are they even together...1-2 yrs is max...if he can' commit to marriage or a child, i think it is time to move on...sounds like she is wasting her life...
Tell him to set himself on fire and run screaming away. That would be better than parenting a kid that will obsess her and make him resentful.
RUN!
