I can afford and she said she will help with all his needs. My girls want me to do it. So that's not an issue either. Any advise will help.

Don't want to sound heartless or be a Dick but of she can't take care of the kids then she should close her legs or take the pills. It sucks that there are so many irresponsible parents out there but if you just ball her out then she will never learn.its not your kids and she ain't your wife so its not your reasonability. You could baby sit and help out but full out bailing this chick isn't going to fox anything. If she can't handle it and you want to take care of the kid.make her Pitt it up and you adopt it

This dude^^^ has a point but we also gota look at it this way shes already in situation and that baby is gonna grow up without a father or someone else besides mom and really I come down to its not the babies fault and he shoudnt get punished plus you have an advantage you got 4teen girls to help you where she has all guys and you know we help for shit at home lol..plus this could be a good experience for your girls if they see this ain't easy the whole mommy thing they will think about it twice before they become pregnant.get me so I say go for it bro its a good deed and you will get your reward in time...

When's your daughter turn 18?

This "woman" needs to get spayed. How could you keep popping kids out with no way of taking care of them. Such a burden for you to take on and I applaud you. Just realize even though you might be the father figure in the kids lives, you're going to have to let the real father in their lives if he wants to be. If he wants to be a prick, the kids will find out eventually. This story sucks, good luck man.
Me personally, i'd let the chick figure this out on her own. I'd never be captain save a ho, seems to easy for her to just choose someone to handle her shit. I see a lot of unecessary drama, taking a baby in isnt like taking a dog in. THERE WILL BE ENDLESS BULLSHIT for the next 18 plus years dawg.

Honestly I think you needa stay away from her. She's probably trying to use you in a way. I know a girl similar to the girl youdiscribed same age except 1 less child. All I have to say about that is that she's pure drama.

So, baby #4 on the way is not yours and she wants you to take care of kid #3 which is not yours. Sounds like a bunch of baby mama drama that you're going to end up regretting getting involved with.
But I think for us to provide solid advice, we're going to need to see a pic of this girl to determine if she's hot enough to put up with this BS.

Must be Latin. Anyone catch she had her first kid at 16?!? Lol
Jokes aside, I applaud you for what you've done and offered to help. But I definitely see issues when the baby daddy finds out (you know he will) and tries to step in. Good luck.

seriously, sounds like you got a lot on your plate.If your not with this chick for the long haul then its probably best not to do it. Only because sure your attached now. but when this kid is a few years older how much more are you going to be attached then? I see it as your pretty much going to get sucked in to taking care of this kid probably the rest of his life.
what happens when hes 10 and the pos father decides he wants to be part of his life and you didnt legally adopt this kid? are you going to be able to let him go? after all the hard work , money and attachment you now have? you really got a lot to figure out. I say if your going to do it, dont half ass it. Go all the way or dont even mess with it at all. if hes not living with you, you can still be a part of his life if that is your ultimate goal here.
If the mom cant handle another kid why is she having another one? She needs to take care of business! I commend you on the fact that you are being a Dad to your kids as well as someone else's. I could never do all that!

As John Lennon said, all you need is love. If you have that, then all the drama that goes with it is worth it.
As for the social commentary replies, it's good to know that cafords members are infallible

37 and four teenage daughters. Sounds like your doing great. As to the friend, seems like either she's a close friend and you have been there for a long time. Other members here seem to think this was a overnight encounter.
I myself would maybe bring the little guy in for a little while being mom does need help with a new born. My guess with the way these members are talking they either don't have middle a couple kids themselves. But they just sound like typical 17-20 yr olds to me.

if you love the kid like its yours then there shouldnt be a problem but just like the other members stated when the real dad wants to see him or take him then your gonna be out of luck..trust me been in this situation where i had to deal with kids that aint mine and after you attached yourself to them and out of nowhere the real dad shows up and takes them its a pretty fucked up feeling..but good luck to you

I'm real uneasy around & dnt really like dating chicks with 1 kid! Its really fucking ackward when lil toddler kids that arent genetically mines call me "daddy/dad/papa" it happened once i stopped seeing the chick. Its not for me.
But it seems too me this is a really close friend of urs?
And ur doing this as a genuine favor with no hope of any sexual rewards?
I personally wouldn't do it....
But there has to be a guy for everything! If it makes u happy & you find that rewarding i say hey go for it.

First I'd like to say that I commend you for being there for a lady in need of help. There's a lot of fathers out there who have children that don't want to be a part of the child's life. Which I don't understand. So for you to be considering taking on a child that is not biologically yours says alot about your character and I have alot of respect for that . Though there's a lot to consider, if you are doing it because you genuinely love that boy then I say if you feel you are up to the task then more power to you .
I hope things work for you and for the kid.

i'd say no. but that is me. there are a lot of good points in his post.. if you are going to do it then have her sing her rights over to you and adopt the little boy. nothing is going to kick you in the balls more than a scum bag pos father coming back in to his life and making yours hell. then get your friend on some birth control.. what is she going to do with baby #4 give that one away to someone else? as someone posted everyone makes mistakes. but having for kids #4 at 21 that you can't support is more than 1 mistake, and we aren't talking about buying a puppy or a junk car.

Wow, Good job Dad, Be PROUD of yourself!!
As for your Lady friend.. I must have to AGREE with some of the postings here.."DO NOT GET INVOLVED". She's still YOUNG and if she was woman enough to Breed them, she should be WOMAN enough to Feed them! She probably sees you as a great father figure but.. you have your own children to take care of. Women like this KILL ME.. they make us hard working, Educated,reponsible,and INDEPENDENT Women look bad!
Please tell her to get SPAYED and "D" all of the above!!

From experience don't do it! I Knew or now this girl that was a close friend with two kids she had nowhere to go. I paid for her hotels and let her stay in my house for nothing! It's a bunch of drama that's really not needed in somones life don't matter how nice or fine she is. In the end you'll be lucky to get a thank you.

Thanks for the info my fellow caford members. I have know her for around three Years and she isn't trying to use me.the dad dOnt want to have noting to do with him he.the baby is named after him and he wanted to change his name because he is having another baby and wants to name his new son after him. We did have a short relationship in the past but I broke it off with her. She stills wants to go out every weekend and I'm done with that.we are better off just being friends.she dose alot of stuff for me to.she is there for my girls,there is some things that as a dad that I can't show my daughters. She Cleans and cooks and goes grocery shopping when I don't want to. Having the baby move in with me was my idea. I brought it up to her a year ago and she said know way,this was way before she was pregnant with number fOur.and she still don't want to do it.but i told her that she is gonna have way to trouble when her new baby is born so she said she wants to try and if she wasn't able to that she might let him live with me. I just needed an outside opinion and I knew you guys would help thanks my caford friends.

I respect u for wanting to help her out and take care of the baby and I see she helps u too but bro she needs to keep her legs shut or get on a pill or maybe even a condom cause are u gonna be there to take in kid number 4 and 5 and 6 cause obviously she doesn't learn her lesson.. You say she still wants to go out, but she made the choice to pop out 4 kids. It's time for her to realize her responsibilities which would be staying home with her kids not going out and getting preg.. I'm really sorry for sounding like an asshole but I sure hope she has a job cause I don't want my taxes going to people like that.

Id say no bailout. ......sounds like you have your hands full Already. You have three girls. So do i..... And two boys. Im the same age. Thats a hand full Already. Mine are similar ages. It will be fun for a little while for your daughters then reality may hit and you'll be on your own with starting all over the with a fairly new one. Give yourself a break. You have enough responsibility to your very own family first. Still can be a friend and help out from time to time with no promises.
