[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My sister is a single mom. When I go out to visit on vacation, DH and I usually let her have the hotel room one or two nights alone while I watch her kids and mine. [b]I hate when my married friends say "I am a single mom this week while DH is traveling," because no you really aren't! You still get his paycheck and when the week is over you have help.[/b] Single moms NEVER get a break unless family help them out. So for OP, why don't you talk with your sister? Find out if she is overwhelmed or needs help?[/quote] My husband travels for work full-time, and I completely agree! When people say "wow, it's like you're a single mom during the week" I remind them that when my DH is home we power through all kinds of chores and errands to make my life as stress-free as possible when he travels.
