[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are only a single mom if the other parent is not involved or dead.

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]

I disagree. I think being single/divorced and a mom means just that.

My ex has our child 2 nights a week. The other 5 nights are all on me. He does not financially contribute either. We've also lived in different countries where DC did not see dad regularly. I was able to afford a sitter and housekeeper and it honestly didn't feel any different than now. Some single moms have zero help from any sourse, while others have plenty. The same can be said for married women too though.[/quote]
