Marrying an illegal immigrant, should I do it?

I have been dating this guy for two years, didnt find out he was illegal until half way through the relationship, while i was pregnant. He absolutley adores his son, and is a great dad. He is hardworking with a decent job, and is good to me. The problem is, I am scared someday he will be found out and my son will loose his dad and he will loose everything he has worked so hard for. Should I marry him for the sake of my son and his future or take the risk he could be gone at any time? We really do love each other. But then again I think how could you do this to us if you really love us, by not becoming legal. Any advice?

Answer:
See the questions from others who have married illegal aliens and are now trying to get their children back from Mexico.

If you love him enough (and he loves you enough) for you to move to Mexico (or whatever country), then go for it. Have an honest life (with marriage).

If you don't love him enough to go live in Mexico or he makes excuses, dump him. A little heartache now is better then a lot of heartache later.

Also read about the heartache of those who's families have been separated due to deportation.

If he did not have a disqualifying aspect (such as a criminal history) he would have long ago married you so he could get legal status.

Sounds like a bad situation all around. I feel sorry for your son.
I very much understand your situation. It is just a simple question of "do you love me?", If you both love each other go marry.

I don't think there is an illegal alien that doesn't want to be legal in this country. Of course, they want it because that's the "American dreams" but sometimes "We" the guys doesn't want "You" women to think that we only after to be legal here in this country.

I do think he loves you but the only thing you can show him is that to marry him and no question about legal or illegal.

If you marry your BF the only thing that will change is that he will be legal and everything will turn out fine.. I fyou dont get married someday time will come that you'll lose your man and that's the sad part.

My advice being an atty. GO and Get Married, you make your relationship be legal too. and He will be legal automatically.

Hmmm, this is a tough situation. The fact that you're questioning it makes me wonder if you really want to marry him. Then again, you say that you do love each other and you guys have a kid together, which is the most important thing. It would be very tough to explain to your child where his daddy is and why he can't visit. If you guys do love each other, I'd say go for it. People have gotten married for less, and at least this way you know that your son's father won't be taken away.
