Dating While Pregnant

Just read it.


Now, here is the issue:

It is not that she wants someone to share her life with while she is pregnant with another man's spawn.

It is that she is mentioning it publicly. Of course she wants to be with someone, especially when she calves like a glacier, but posting it to the Times Union provides horrible optics.

Everyone's priorities are screwed up sometimes, but you pretend that your priorities are in line properly for the sake of your children.

Here is the thing Ms. Padilla, your child (and I see you are publicly rooting for a daughter, I assume you understand that it won't be like Gilmore Girls, and what if you have a son?), will see this.

They will be able to Google your name in about eight years, and they will ask questions.

You have time to figure out your answers.
