Chip Chick
He does not want his daughter to get away with this and have zero repercussions. When he was 19, he was fully on his own and caring for himself, so he thinks that may cause him to view all of this in a different light.
“Is it really wrong for me to kick my adult daughter out of my house after she lied to me?” he asked.
“I’m willing to see if I’ve taken things too far.”
Here’s what the internet had to say.
“She’s an adult and chose to lie and put herself in this situation. There’s no way she can afford to support a child on her own. It’s not fair to expect her parents to do so like ppl in the comments seem to think.”
“… I would have done the same. Although I would have had a serious conversation first about what I am willing and unwilling to do, set very firm rules and boundaries as to my involvement and financial help which she has to accept if she wants to return.”
“If she chooses to keep the baby and if I’m financially able, I would help in initially setting her up outside of my home as I have no interest in raising another baby in my 40’s.”
“But I’m not going to financially support her forever. That being said, I would not leave her with completely no options, no support, and no help.”
“If you let her come back with her choosing to keep the baby, know that there will be responsibilities expected from you / that will fall on you and your wife considering she’s only 19.”
“Is she working? How will she support herself, is she going to pursue getting child support from the father? Either way it’s a difficult decision to make, best of luck to you and your daughter.”
