[quote=Anonymous][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. [/quote] 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] I did read it. Did you? Her ex gets the kid every other weekend at best. So that's twice a month. Who do you think does all of the work when he is not around? You're just here to shit on single moms and I'm tired of old biddies like you. Takes a super miserable person to lecture women doing all the work on nominclature. [/quote]
