Just To Keep Her Welfare Checks Coming
from: Draven

I met a girl that on the surface seemed so sweet & innocent. We started dating and soon after we moved in together.  (I moved into her half duplex).   It wasn't long after this that she began talking about starting a family.  She already had a 2 1/2 yr. old son, but she wanted more children. I wasn't sure I was ready yet, so we agreed to use birth control. Little did I know that she was planning on getting pregnant anyway.  She sabotaged the Trojans and wasn't using the spermicide. Well, she became pregnant and I was happy, after all was said and done. I got so into the idea of being a father, but it wasn't what she had planned. All she really wanted was the child.   See, her other son was coming to an age that she would have lost her Public Assistance unless she either
   1. got a part time job,
    2. went back to school or
    3. got pregnant again.

Quickly after she gave birth, she tried to find the way to get rid of me. It took her 9 months, but she accomplished her goal. Today our son is 6 years old, and I hardly get to see him because she keeps him from me. I am doing all I can to prevent this legally, but she is stubborn. She never loved me when she said the words, she only wanted to keep her welfare. Now a child is being kept from his father who loves him.
