Me and my boyfriend welcomed our son into the world in June and have been together for 1.5 yrs. I have severe depression/anxiety. He is bipolar and has anxiety. He also has trouble with controlling his anger. I work and he doesn't. He plays video games all day at home and watches our son while im at work. I want to have financial stability, but he doesnt seem to care. We live at his parents house together and i am working really hard to get us out of their so we can create a home for our family. I like to work because keeping busy at work distracts my mind so I don't mind that I work but it also puts a ton of pressure, and stress on me. He believes i think money is everything and that i think it will make me happy but thats not true! I just want to live comfortably without constantly stressing over money and to be able to provide for my son properly. We are going to our first couples therapy session next week that we both agreed we needed. I'm going to bring this up and we will see what happens. We just really need to get on the same page of where we see us going with our future.

Having children places most things, in a different perspective. He sounds comfortable to be cared for, you sound like you crave your own roof, to live under. Living with the grandparents of the child(ren), creates another dimension, in and of itself.
Seems, to me, more than money as the focus, yet, that's just my first impression reading. Hope all goes well, in counseling, for the both of you.
