well if its your baby that means it's your responsibility. if either of your guys' parents are willing to help that's really nice of them but why should they pay for your child?

the people in your first post with this exact same question already told you this.

YOU are responsible for the child care.

If you couldn't afford a child, you shouldn't have been having sex. Period.

But...it's too late for that, isn't it?

Get a job. See if your parents will help with babysitting so that you can work after school. See if HIS parents will babysit so that HE can work after school.

NEITHER set of parents are responsible for paying for their grandchild. The child's PARENTS are responsible for paying for it.

Welcome to parenthood. You had a child and it's yours and the fathers responsibility to take care of that child. Babies are expensive, so I suggest that both you and the Daddy get a job.

If your parents agree to help out then that is very nice of them, but they are not obligated to pay for a child that you created and decided to keep. Nope, that's all on you and the Dad.
