Life is complicated!

Fraulein wanted a word with me. She wanted to know if it was ok to invite a friend from college for a sleepover. I'm not that keen on the friend, even though I haven't met her, Fraulein's descriptions of her and her on/off boyfriend's behaviours have been enough to put me off them both. But you can't chose your children's friends for them, so I agreed that friend come come over. There's something else I have to tell you first, says Fraulein - she's pregnant!! Visibly pregnant, hence the having to tell me, before I noticed! That's not a huge deal I suppose, although I find it sad that a college age girl is pregnant at her age, children are a heck of a commitment at any age and she's still mostly a child herself. The trouble is the father is the on/off boyfriend who has also been pursuing Fraulein! Which as the expecting girl lives with his family, he must have known for some time that she was pregnant and still chose to pursue Fraulein. Its not a good situation and I just hope it works out for them all, but especially the innocent little baby that will be born into all of this. I am, however, very proud of Fraulein, she said she has been trying (and thinks she may have succeeded a little) to get the boy to understand his responsibilities to both his future child, and to the child's mother. She also wants to try and make things better for the girl, and that is why she has invited her over here, to get her out of the boys house and the situation there, and give her space to talk. Fraulein can be a dizzy teenager, but she is also a very caring young lady, well done Fraulein.
