I'm having a delimma only because I'm trying not to do anything out of spite. I don't really know my father. When my mother got pregnant, he left the state and didn't come back until I was born. He signed his rights to me away when I was about 6. I didn't meet him until I was 13 and he didn't make any effort to get to know me. All of a sudden, at 22, he decides he wants a daughter. By then, I was through. I don't hate him, I just don't know him and don't have any desire to now. The problem is that I have very good relationships with everyone else on his side of the family. So, now I'm married and 14 weeks pregnant. Everyone on that side knows but him. They all think I should tell him. My mother says it's my decision, but she doesn't think I should feel pressed to inform him. I have no plans for this child to have a relationship with him. Should I tell him anyway, just so he'll know he's gonna be a grandfather? BTW, my husband doesn't think I should, but said you decide.
