Dear Aunty
I am a 19-year-old guy dating a 46-year-old woman. She is my first sexual partner and I love her.
My girlfriend has just discovered she is pregnant.
I am not sure how to tell my family, as she has two other kids. I am confused and need your advice.
Yours
Brother
THE RESPONSE
Hey Brother
Dating an older woman can be a challenge.
Although she is more mature and independent, it leaves you socially limited in activities you are able to explore with her.
With age comes a great deal of “baggage” that could possibly delay your aspirations.
Your family will naturally have some objections about your relationship.
Since you will be a parent soon, it is time to do something about your life so you can be responsible for your child.
Do not give up on your dreams and life goals.
