"I...I don't know...how to raise a child..." She murmured softly, her brow furrowed as she bit her lip and finally broke out of his arms, her hand reaching up to take off her hat and run her hands over her hair. "Plus, they are going to want to see my financial records and I don't even have a paystub or anything..." If she was the one regaining custody than they would want to see her records and she had nothing to show. The house was looking decent, sure but as far as cash flow went, she was broke. Plus, no medical insurance, no insurance of any kind....there was just so much to think about. Would her daughter be bitter against her later on in life for giving her up for that year? What kind of future could she offer her? And...most importantly, could she do it all without Rio? (NT) -- Jackie, 11:22:08 01/21/07 Sun
