I agree that it's dumb, but my sister and her boyfriend are willing to do this to keep the baby. I told my mom there are many other alternatives like signing over custody to me. But they say this will be for best.

My husband and I already made a bet, he bets the will be divorced in a year, I say 1 1/2. My sister has never been with the same guy for more then a couple weeks and she really likes attention from all sorts of different guys if you know what I mean. I can't imagine that she will devote herself to Ricki. Then again, I could be wrong, this experience may change her and make her more aware of what's most important, and that's the baby.

I hope something changes and works out, for the better. All I care is about that baby, and I think with Ricki and my sister together, he will be very valued.
