[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What a bizarre final comment you make about marriage. How does being alone help women??[/quote]

Well, as a single mom making $300, I can guarantee I have far less arguments about how I’m spending my money or child raising decisions than 99.9% of married people. (Not, op). [/quote]

I live in McLean and I never run into women like you. [/quote]

Because you are old and live in one of those old ranchers. There are plenty of successful, single moms at Longfellow making this or more. For those who can't imagine a woman in her 30s making a high salary, you need to leave Woodbridge more. A 25 year old computer system engineer makes around 200K. A lawyer makes at least 300K. I'm a fed at a fin agency and I make over 200K. My single friend at Amazon makes 400. My H is a VP of sales in biotech and his top sales person is a woman in Atlanta making 600K.    [/quote]

So if you have a middle school student and in your 30s, you were a young mom. I have a middle school student and I’m 43 and I feel like one of the young moms. I also have a kid in preschool. You are a super young mom.

I am not trying to put you down but 200k is low in McLean. Sorry.[/quote]

Another dumb one. Read my post slowly. Slowly. I'm not in my 30s. And I love my salary and flexibility, after spending years in IB. And some of us don't even have to work, not because we have to desperately cling on some a** husband, but because we have family money.  [/quote]

I just came on here to say I respect single moms because it must be hard. It is hard enough with a partner.

It is hard to parent a middle school student. I just dropped him off to an activity. I am able to do this at 2:30 because I don’t work.

I used to work and I loved working. I had a flexible job but it wasn’t flexible enough.

I have many different friends. Most of my friends work. Most of my friends from college and grad school all work. I will probably also go back to work. Some are divorced and I don’t think it is easy for any of them.

You are the one who insulted the pp.[/quote]
