[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’re not a single parent if there is another parent actively involved in raising the kids [b]at the same time as you[/b].  Regardless of your romantic status.[/quote]

Fixed it for you.

Why do you insist on begrudging a divorced mom the hardship of being the solo parent every time they have their kids?[/quote]

Because she’s a liar.  She isn’t a single mom, she’s a divorced mother co-parenting with her ex and trying to pretend he’s not parenting their children as well, presumably for sympathy.

Military spouses aren’t single parents every time their spouses deploy, even though they may be “solo parenting” for awhile and it’s really difficult.[/quote]

Np, I agree with this. If I got a divorce and split custody/financial support with DH it would feel pretty slimy to go on sm media complaining that I’m a single mom when[b] dad is right there taking on half the parenting responsibility. [/b]

But I do also get that some people want a lot of attention on sm and it sounds like this lady has found a way to get the attention she craves. Thoughts and prayers. [/quote]

You think most women get divorced from men who then do their fair share? Like when they were married the women did 93% but once they're divorced all of a sudden the men step it up? I mean, sure, that might happen, but since you have no idea what is going on in someone else's house, maybe you should just be less judgmental and more thankful that you're not in their position.[/quote]
