[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Divorced mothers are NOT single moms. Does anyone else find that strange? Single mothers do not have spouses ex or otherwise to rely on. [/quote] Of course divorced moms are single moms. A single mom is a mom who is single, I.e. Not partnered or married. It has nothing to do with how much help you have. My mom helps out a lot with my son, but as I am not married to her I am still a single mom. I have a friend who is a single mom with a kid in boarding school, that's a lot of help too. She's still single though. If "single mom" was shorthand for "a lot if work" then my friend Jane with the husband who is on the road a lot, and the six boys, all of whom she homeschools, and one of whom is significantly disabled would be more of a single mom than me, but she isn't a single mom.
