ok my boyfriend and I have a 2 year old daughter and my parents just took her to the doctors for me 2 and a half hours away the doctors tokld her that she has a sist on her eye that has to be drained. My mom said that she cant take her up for that and Im not comfortable driving 2 and a half hours away by myself so I asked my boyfriend to take us and he said he probably couldnt get off. Now I know he has a strict working enviroment but dont you think he should do everthing in his power to get off? I'm the mom I do everything and this is all I ask from him. Whats more important? His stupid *** job which pays nothing or his daughter? Help what should I do?

well, your daughter needs to get to the doctor to get the cyst removed. it's gotta be done, these are the kinds of sacrifices mothers make, whether or not your boyfriend will help.

sounds like you need a boyfriend who is more concerned with you and your daughter than with a part-time job.

if he had his head screwed on right he would not have to decide or think about what was more important (his job or his child)
you can only do the best with what you have ask a friend to take the trip with you
you sound like the bigger person in this relationship

p.s good luck with what you decide i hope it all works out for you

Well, that is a tough one. Can you reschedule for a time when either he is off of work, you are off of work, or your parents are off of work?

If the cyst is really bad and needs immediate attention, then take her to the ER or walk in emergency clinic. There is probably one of those nearby. I realize it will cost more, but what is more important, your child or the money?!

Unless you have some non-mentioned reason for not driving, the fact that you're not comfortable should not stop you. There are many jobs that can't just be left suddenly. It would definitely be nice if he could get away to do that for you, but you can't expect it to be required of him.

It's his child too, but if he's not around much and you have custody then you have to do the right thing and bite the bullet and just drive and be careful, remember it's not your parents responsibility , not to sound harsh I feel for you not having help
Good luck

If he's paying for child support then he should be willing to help you get your child to the doctor's. It's important for a father to play a big role in his child's life.

I think you should be OK with driving by yourself. Don't be afraid of doing that on your own. I understand what your saying about your boyfriend/daughter's dad, but believe me I know you can do!

I would want my baby daddy to take the time off to be there for his daughter.. but if he cannot maybe you could ask one of your friends to take you up.?
