[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] I've never been married and my ex is tons more involved than my two divorced friends' exes. One pays child support when wages are found to garnish but has zero visitation by choice. Friend doesn't have a clue where he lives. The other contributes a few hundred dollars once in awhile and sees his daughter when its convenient (he's in town and calls to say he wants to pick child up within an hour, only to disappear again eventually). Meanwhile, my ex has our child every weekend and picks up from school 1-2 a week. We're all single moms with varying contributions from the paternal parent. Not every married mom gets the same level of support from their husbands, but they're still married moms.[/quote]
