A new mother took to Facebook to express her many frustrations with her boyfriend and father of her child, whom she describes as a “lazy piece of shit.”

My life sucks and is perfect at the same time. All I’ve ever wanted is to be a mother. Now, I have a beautiful 19-month-old and I’m 12 weeks pregnant! I want to scream with happiness and I’ve never felt more fulfilled in my life.

However, my boyfriend is the laziest piece of shit I’ve ever encountered. I work full-time from home as a freelance writer and do everything myself. All the childcare, cleaning, running errands, etc. It’s all on me.

My boyfriend doesn’t work. He sits around playing video games all night and sleeps most of the day. He’s not happy that I’m pregnant again. Yesterday he told me he’s annoyed that I “won’t shut up about it.”

I want to kick him out of the apartment and tell him to get bent. But then I’ll be the bad guy for making him homeless. His family doesn’t know how lazy he is. They think he quit his job to help me take care of our son, so I could work more. Nope
