Surprised? No. Sad? Terribly. It's been a bad week, news-wise.

I never had much confidence in Daniel being able to support himself and his wife...but a baby too? NOT that I expect a man to support his wife; that isn't it. I simply assumed that she wouldn't be able to do very much supporting, considering that her plan was to be a full-time student and his plan was...well...to sit on his ass. I assume that this pregnancy will delay (probably forever) the art school plan. I also assume that it will destroy both of their lives, and might possibly be the thing that ends their marriage. (Because it will end...she's 18, and he's about 12, emotionally/mentally speaking...and they're impoverished and a million miles from all their friends and family. Yeah. Stable, huh?)

Danny has always been a selfish, irresponsible child himself. How the hell is he planning on raising one of his own?
