[quote=Anonymous]I co-parent, and consider myself a single parent. I don't understand the ongoing debate over this, and the insistence by some that there cannot be two or more categories of single parents. Who has it harder? I'm not sure. A parent who co-parents but who has a high conflict relationship with his/her ex, no family in the area and financial difficulties might have it worse with a 24/7 single parent of means with family nearby. My parenting continues when my child is at dad's, meetings, appointments, events, games, and there is no second income or adult to help with chores or errands. In all honesty, my situation would be much easier if my ex were not in the picture. I never whine about it, either. I have had 24/7 single mothers look me straight in the eye and tell me they would much rather be in their shoes than mine.[/quote]
