Freaked...

I just got two shockers today.  My god-daughter called me and told me she is six weeks pregnant.  She's in her early 20's but just broke up with her boyfriend about four weeks ago.  This is not how I envisioned her life.  Her mom is distressed but also happy about being a grandmother.  I guess she's trying to make lemonade out of lemons.  I suggested abortion but was told that abortion is out of the question.  I also suggested adoption but I don't see that happening either.  So, my god-daughter is going to be a single mother.  It's her life and I wish her well.  I just don't see a good future for her right now.  At least she's working and has health benefits. 

My second shocker is that my son went into his sister's bedroom looking for fingernail polish to put on his Rubrik's cube.  He found some Trojan packets in her bedroom, one of which was open.  So he called me because he didn't know what to do because his dad wasn't home.  I didn't get upset because I am at work.  I told Richard to tell his father and that I wouldn't let Lele know that he had found them.  I am really hoping that she was just curious as to what a condom looked like.  If she's having sex, at least she's being smart.  I am thoroughly wierded out about this whole situation.  I don't want my daughter having sex at 15 years of age.

Damn, life is so blasted difficult right now!!!!!!
