My little sister keeps making threats against my unborn child, saying that she wants to kill it. And that she is going to kick or punch me in the stomach... I don't know what to do about it. She and I used to be close... now that I am 7 months pregnant... I am really worried for my daughter who is due on December 6th 2008.

I live with my aunt and uncle, who also have my sister. I am really worried that she may do something to my child. I don't know what to do... PLEASE somebody help me...

Can I get help for my sister to deal with this? Or do I let it go... I have no other place to live. I lost my job when my boss learned I was pregnant... I have no money at all saved. I really don't know what I should do.

Can u not get the council to rehouise you, or speak to someone who deals with violence. A doctor ,ay be able to put you in touch with someone. You should slao encourage your sister to get help,m though she will only do that if she can see that she has a problem

Did you apply for unemployment? That would be the first step. Another step is to look for different housing--whether with his family, homeless shelter, or in a cheap studio apartment.

The next step is to get her help. Suggest therapy. She seems to be jealous. Perhaps that you are having a child first or even that she thinks she will be losing you. But what she is doing is NOT okay.

First, You cannot be fired due to pregnancy. You may have a case against your employer. I would contact a labor attorney to see whether you should bring suit against him.

Second, where is your baby's father in all this?

Third, have you discussed this with your aunt and uncle? Clearly your sister feels she is being shut out. First she lost her parents, now she feels she is losing you. She needs to get counseling to help her deal with these issues.
