[quote=Anonymous][quote]At the end of the day, [b]we're all moms, we all have the same needs and wants and struggles, and I think there's far more that binds us than that separates us. (I'm including married or partnered mothers in this too.)[/b] It is an extremely rare occasion when I need to distinguish my type of singleness from any other woman's singleness. When I do, it is purely to signify that there is no dad in the picture -- not a divorced dad, not a boyfriend out there, no one. It's not meant to suggest that I somehow arrived at motherhood by a more acceptable route than anyone else did.[/quote] This. I'm married and have an adopted child. I have friends who have children and were never married, are divorced with children, etc. I never think about how they had their children or what the configuration is now. I just think of all of us as "moms". That's the most important and greatest thing---we're moms! The details don't matter. [/quote]
