[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]You are only a single mom if the other parent is not involved or dead. [/b] My ex, who was very involved with our kids, died recently. As a result I am now a single mom. I feel a huge difference now that I am 100% on my own with them. Such a significant loss. Honestly, I was more well rested as a divorced mom than I was when we were married. When we were married the kids were in my presence 24/7 and I did way more for the family on a consistent basis. Once we split he was forced to do his share because I was not around to pick up the slack.[/quote] Bull shit. Can we just stop with the "who has it worse" contests? I'm a single mom. I get child support, and my ex hangs out with our kid (he doesn't PARENT - he's disney dad and does ONLY the fun parts - all of the WORK of parenting falls to ME) every other weekend. Ex also lives more than 300 miles away, so I'm really and truly on my own here in the DC area. Mothers who are MARRIED are not single parents. If you are NOT married, and live as the sole adult in your house, then you are a single parent.[/quote]
