[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Please share the single mom by choice groups and I suggest that you don't exclude people who did not use surrogates, IVF, sperm donors or other modern parenting pathways. Some single parents made choices to follow through with a pregnancy despite a less than ideal partner. I also think there are a few class and racial undertones to how people become single parents. There is also a woman who is revamping research on single parent households by Dr. Bella DePaulo. She presents a fresh perspective on single parenting. https://www.amazon.com/Single-Parents-Their-Children-Tells/dp/151485175X[/quote] PP I get where you're coming from. It's not that SMC groups aim to exclude people who are parenting solo because of other reasons. There's just a different set of circumstances that surround the issue when your #1 plan is to parent without a partner, and it is helpful to be able to discuss that with people who've been there/are there. That said, there really don't seem to be many SMC groups around that aren't in some way connected to the larger organization (I've looked extensively). However, I have found many FB groups of single parents whose supposed co-parent is not at all in the picture.[/quote]
