[quote=Anonymous]I counted on a lot of support from my family and friends, which didn't really materialize. People helped in the first few months, and they were still my friends etc., but they weren't really interested in providing much logistical support long-term. There was definitely a feeling of "you made your choice, so you better learn to handle it." As for my family, my in-town sister ended up moving for grad school, and my own parents dropped a huge bomb on me by getting divorced soon after. So they were preoccupied with their own lives and not very helpful, plus I have to deal with separate visits, split-up holidays, etc. It depresses me to think that my children and grandchildren (God willing) will be having the same experience some day. It has been eye-opening, to say the least. All of this has been financially hard as it has required much more paid childcare and outsourcing household stuff.[/quote]
