Ditto WhenWillIFeelNormal. You need to stay away form this man and his son and seek outside support.

You can do this alone. Tbh, I found being a lone parent easier than being in a relationship. I was only 21 when I had dd1.

Your landlord/the council should be fixing things around your flat for you.

You can get a grant from the DWP for baby stuff, for the tune of £500 iirc. Your midwife will be able to advise you more about this.

You do not need this man to 'help' you.

robin these men will always appear nice and charming. please do not trust him.

is this the baby's grandfather you talking about or the other boy's dad?

theya re all taking advantage of you. please speak seriously to your midwife and ehalth visitor and get support from surestart centres and otehr women, not from any of these men who will use you for sex.

he is trying to buy you.

Please don't go near this man. He's old enough to be your father - and his son has dated or wants to date you. This has all the wrong feeling. You feel confused - which is a pretty good signal to stay away from all these men. Concentrate on your children for now. Please, please don't fall for the flowers and fancy talk. Men that age (and I speak as old enough to be your mother) do not, as a rule, go after girls your age, except to make themselves feel young again. And he's catching you at a very vulnerable time.

Is your mum around? Can you talk to her?
