[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just so you know, single mother’s by choice does not accept women who get pregnant by accident. It’s only for women who purposely become single mothers by choice. I looked into it way back when. What a disappointment![/quote]

Well apparently that is exactly how they feel about you too. Reread the name of the group. It is a "CHOICE." Not an accident.[/quote]

Wow - you really are a piece of cake. Please don’t speak for us, okay?

PP, I’m sorry you found a bad group. Not every group is like that. While there are different challenges for thinkers and triers (like discussions of sperm banks, artificial insemination, etc)[b] once you are pregnant, no one cares. You will have the same challenges.[/b] My advice is to offer him a one shot “in or out” and if he’s out, you don’t put him on the birth certificate, and you tell no one who he is. It’s not worth it for child support he will probably never pay. Make this kid yours, where you get to call the shots. [/quote]

That's just not true. I am a single mom by choice, and the group I was in before I moved away from the DMV actually kicked out some women in OP's situation. It's not the same thing if your kid actually has a dad, but he sucks (because you can send kid to dad if you want to go on vacation alone or something. We can't do that, ever). And no one in our group wanted to listen to women complaining about their sh*tty ex who is a terrible father, because it's just not relevant to us. Likewise, you are going to have zero helpful advice for us on things like, should I meet my kids' donor siblings and their families? Should I pick an open donor, or completely anonymous? Which fertility clinic is best? It's not a good fit, OP.[/quote]
