Every single mother I knew always made it sound like it was such a struggle. But reading that post (and thinking of the former co-worker I just ran into) got me to thinking: Is single parenting really not as hard as we think it is if you have the financial resources? (Frankly I used to think Co-worker was chipper at work but miserable at home or just hiding her pain at work. Then someone pointed out 'Why wouldn't she be happy being able to take her child abroad just to shop (she did that when we worked together too), drive a luxury car, carry the most expensive handbags, etc?)[/quote]If you think you are the kind of person who needs money to be happy, then no amount of money will ever be enough and you cannot be a single mother
If you can be happy without a lot of money then you can be a single mother.
A trip abroad is not so expensive, there are good deals if you know where to look. Expensive handbags are important to some, but ebay sells them too and you do not have to pay retail. Kids can do well in school even if it is not the top school in the county
It can be done, if you want to do it.[/quote]
