Good Afternoon,

I am new here, so hope I am in the right topic.

I am an South-African & am strongly considering leaving my boyfriend.

My question: Does the law force me to tell him that I am pregnant? He is not physical abusive & has a daughter that he takes good enough care of. If I should ask, he will be able to afford maintenance.

He can be emotionally abusive @ times & I need to leave him & never have contact again.

Thank you.

I need to leave him & never have contact again.Hello Sun:

The problem is, unless you choose to abort, you are going to be connected to him for the next 18 years whether you like it or not.

Your child deserves to have a father. You have no right to take that from her/him. If you do, your child is never going to forgive you, and I wouldn't blame her/him.
