[quote=Anonymous]You’re looking for an answer you’re not going to get. No one really cares about your co-parent’s issues, but they are telling you that in order to get through residency in the military, you need another functional adult working with you on this. Ex, mother, sibling, best friend, whatever. Unless you are independently wealthy and can hire 24-7 help (and this is way outside the scope of an au pair) you need to,think about alternatives - either about your employment or your family and living situation. Anonymous boards can be “rude” but they also can be very very honest. I’m a solo parent myself, so there is no judgment about you being solo, but it’s a reality check. Solo parenting of a toddler with no outside support is going to be your primary job. It just is. Find someone else to share it with your or get a 9-5 placement. And Uncle Sam doesn’t give a darn, so you are in a tough spot. [/quote]
