For Women Who Want The Ballerific Life!
What Should I Do?
So I'm outside waiting for the police to come right now. My brother has a son that is 15. He has never really been present in his life but he says that he has paid child support for him on time every month for years. My bro is like 37 makes 30+ an hour as a construction worker and lives in his own home that has at least three bedrooms in it. He has a girl that he's been talking to for about a year since his 'wife' moved to Louisiana and she has 'custody' of his last child. He has five children in total with three different women. So anyway, my nephew's mother is a typical dumb hoe who has custody of only two of her five children by three men. My nephew is one of them. The other is a baby that's nine months. My nephew is in the seventh grade. So anyway he's been homeless for the last year or so and I feel bad with him bouncing from house to house and I want to help out, but honestly, I just can't do it alone. Three weeks ago, the mother and my bro tried to strongarm me into keeping him with me, but after a week of him sleeping on my floor, I dropped him off at a cousins and kept it moving. That is how my bro finally took him in. On wednesday he dropped him off and left him wit no where to go because 'he needed grown up time wit his chick.' My nephew has be sleeping anywhere since I refused to get in it. So since today is sunday, the day my bro said he could come back, I attempted to drop him off my bro opened the door and refused to let him in. When I heard his voice I smashed cuz I just can't do it if they not tryna help me wit $ cuz I can't support anyone besides myself. I felt bad anc called the police. They needed the address so I went back to get it and saw that my nephew was sitting on the porch. I'm waiting for the squad now, but the question is what should I do?? I don't mind takin him in, but it has to be legit cuz I need aid for him.

Wow.....I hate to hear your nephew is going through this. You're always entitled to assistance when you take in a child that's not yours.....be it through child support or welfare. Dont worry about the money. When you do right by others, especially kids, money falls out of the sky.....BELIEVE THAT.
PS: Your brother is a piece of sh*t

"It takes a village to raise a child"
I could not sit back and allow my siblings child to become homeless. At some point someone needs to make a sacrifice for this young man's sake! There are too many evils in the streets waiting to suck this young man in. PLEASE do the right thing and help
Ans yea.. what Smitty said about your brother.

i agree! take this young man in please. you will be suprised the way things move to work in your favor to make this happen as well as a change in your mindset that you can and will have to try to make it work somehow.
i feel so badly that this is all happening in your family. if it were you, you would want someone to step up and show that they love you and not make you feel like a burden. i hope things work out. also, keep in mind that in a year or less it sounds like this young man will be able to get a part-time job to help out w/things a growing boy needs including learning responsibility.
lastly, yeah your brother is a selfish pig!

I know it will be hard but Please take him in. Can you imagine being bounced around at age 15 from house to house feeling like no one, not even your own mother and father want you. I pray that he doesn't find comfort in the streets, where so many other neglected young men turn. As the ladies above said, God will take care of you and him for lending a hand in making him feel like someone wants him. This made me sad and mad all at the same time. Your brother & your nephews' mother ain't s*** for this. I pray everything works out for the both of you.

I co-sign Smitty's statement. I agree with everyone, take him in and give him stability. Get him in some after school program to keep him away from the 'negative elements' out there.

I know it is hard, but I am sure your nephew really needs you. I was taken in by my Uncle when I was 14 years and I do not know where I would be with him. Although we did not always see eye to eye, I respect him so much for taking me in, because he really did not have too. My uncle and I are not as close as we should be now but I respect him so much for everything he has done for me!
With that being I really encourage you to try to help your nephew. I am an advocate for people taking care of their own families. If you let me know what city and state you are in I can look up resources to help you. There are many organization that help people who have to take in relatives. Also, if you legally take him in both his parents will have to pay you child support. Another thing to look into is food stamps. Feeding a child is NOT cheap and there is NOTHING wrong with getting help for a child especially one that is not yours. Also, he is around the age that he can get a little part time job or mow lawns something to keep him busy and out of trouble. It is important to teach him some responsibility.
I know this is hard for you, but I am sure it is hard for you nephew as well.
Please let me know if there is I can do to help you. I help a run a small non profit and we have some ties to other organization, so I can help you receive some donations such as clothing, food, whatever.

I also agree with everyone else. Doing the right thing while there may be sacrifice and struggle now. THe reward will come to you down the line. You can be the difference in your nephews life that will help him become a better person and truth be told he may bring out the best in you also. I am going to keep you in my prayer.

You made me cry... Your brother ain't s*** and neither is his momma
Don't worry about money you will be blessed in the end
You can always apply for public assistance or take his parents to court and get child support.. Are you going to legally adopt him?

Girl I'm not gonna lie, I was over her tearing up, doing a silent cry. It really saddens my heart to hear stuff like this.

WOW!! This little boy is being put through smh....just like everyone else is saying. Take him in, cause right now people are treating him like an unwanted animal and that's not fair to him. He has 2 shitty parents but that's not his fault. Take him in and watch God work....
Ps...remember that movie The Blind Side
