forced to have a baby

[redvelvet]

@Nad_e_Ali

I have been married for 8 months now. I am 19 at this point and my hubby’s 22, plus he is my cousin. He came from Pakistan and is still struggling to get admission in a good uni. I am also a college student. We are happily married but the issue is that both mine and his parents are pressurizing us to have a baby which we don’t want at this point. My hubby is the only son in his family therefore his parents are eagerly waiting to see their grandchild, and they won’t listen. My father-in-law gets angry with my hubby every time he brings this topic up. We are living with my parents for now since my hubby’s new to the place…he doesn’t have a driver’s license, and can’t afford to live separately because he is the only one working. I really don’t know what to do right now, what should i do? any suggestions?

You will have a baby when Allah wills it. That said…remind your nagging in-laws and parents of this simple fact.:

“Aap ke baar baar kehnay se bacha faurun to nahin paida hoga. Yeh sab Allah ki marzi par depend karta hai.”

Also explain to them babies are rather expensive…and as much as the grandparents would be happy to have one…it’s the PARENTS who will be raising it. And it’s smart/practical planning to want to be financially secure before popping out babies.
