0 GuaymasJim Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Just love the new little one with all your heart! The baby had absolutely no choice in how (s)he was conceived. Your are going to find out the baby is a wonderful gift. If your experience mirrors mine, you are going to live longer and better. If you resent the baby, the baby is going to know that. If you love the baby unconditionally with all your heart, the baby is going to know that also. That doesn't seem like a difficult choice to me. I made the same choice and sincerely believe it as the best decision I ever made in my life. I am so proud of my (now 16 yo) young man that I could burst. He is now one year older than his mother was when he was born. I have had him since he was two months old. We have shared a wonderful journey together! The legal ramifications will work themselves out. I never thought I would ever say this, but some of those organization who are rabidly anti-abortion advertise having alternatives. They may well have some helpful information for you. Planned Parenthood may also have information for you. Good luck and above all--love this child!

She's 15, he's definitely also your Dependant, until and probably after she's 18. That is, as long as she maintains custody of your grandson. Might be a good idea to get a free consult with a Family L

You would actually have to adopt your grandson to make him your dependant for VA. Went thru this a few years ago...

At this point, an extra Dependant increases your comp by a $100+ and there's no retro involved so give some thought to the adoption move, could be expensive and difficult to reverse. Might even have u
