[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’re not a single mom. Your child has a father who is present in their life. You’re leaving your child with their father, which is as it should be.

Enjoy your trip and don’t worry about what a coworker thinks.[/quote]

+1  I'm tired of people saying they are "single parents" when in fact, they are not.

This woman is a mom who happens to be divorced BUT the child's father is still involved on a regular basis. That means she is NOT a single parent but a divorced one.

IMO using the words "single parent" means there is ZERO support or involvement of any kind by the other parent. I know a woman who was actually on a local news feature story where she lamented how she was a "single parent" and was having trouble paying her taxes (in her fully-paid for million dollar home in MoCo). It was a blatant lie since her ex had given her his share of the house, [b]had weekly custody of the kids[/b], AND paid her generous child support.

But there she was, all boo hoo about how she was a "single parent." She also neglected to mention that [b]her affair partner was living with her and the kids[/b] and was contributing to the household, too.

Yeah, so much support every other weekend. She is rolling in support.

I think everyone who has not had to shoulder the majority of kid raising on their own should sit down and STFU.[/quote]

Uh, did you read? Not every case is the same. This woman is NOT a single parent and is NOT shoulderning the majority of kid raising. Curb your defensiveness. [/quote]
