| Hey Sarah! I'm Jasmine, and I am in the same situation as you. I am 20, and the single mother of a 3 month old baby boy...I spend a lot of time dealing w/ social services as well (well it's called job and family services here) and they are a pain in the but. They are trying to set up child support w/ my ex now, and I really don't want anything to do w/ him, but it's kind of being forced upon me. Oh well. Ummm lets see....I go to college full time for nursing and work part time at the university's human resources department, and my son and i live in a little apartment right off campus. So tell me a little about you and your kids! Just send me a message to my account, I actually don't get on here a lot but i saw your post and was interested. |

| I will be 26 in 2 weeks and am a single mom. Ironically I also work for social services in Colorado. I know how frustrating the system can be. Just try to keep in mind we are not all bad. |

| hey ladies. im 21 years old and now have a 3 month old daughter. i left my ex when i was 10 weeks pregnant because he was mentally abusive. its definetly hard. the first week my daughter was born he wrote me a letter telling me i was selfish for keeping my daughter from him. the way i see it, if he really cared he would come over to the house and see her. financially, i could use the child support but here in arizona if he pays child support he automatically will get partial custody which terrifies me. every morning i wake up scared that today will be the day he tries to take her away from me. |

I am a 22 years old and my son is going to turn 1 on saturday :) My son's father tells everyone that I try to keep him away from our son, which is untrue. I beg him to see him and spend time with him...but he has to use that excuse becuase they ask him how he has all the time in the world to spend with the motorcycle club he is in when he has a baby.
Anyways...I am active duty in the navy and living here in San Diego, CA =....thousands of miles away from my family and support system...It's hard but totally worth it, becuase the bond my son and I have is so strong. |

| i am also a single mom. i may be 26, but my daughter is 5, so i've been a single mom for quite a while. i've had alot of ups and downs, but i've learned alot in the process. i'd love chat with other single moms and see what situations they are facing. |

| I am 22 years old and a single mom to a 3 year old boy. He is my pride and joy. His dad and I seperated after 4 years of dating and just before my son, Landon, turned 2. I moved out of state to get away from him and his drama in April, 2006. I now live 600 miles from any family and I do not receive any government assistance or child support. I have a case open for child support but it has been 2 years and nothing has been done to start it yet. Good ol' social services. =) |

im turing 21 in 2 days and I am the mother of my beautiful 6 month old daughter. My ex knocked me up when we had only been dating for 3 months... yea, 3 months. and I stayed with him while I was pregnant and we fought alot and its only been getting worse :'( I broke up with him yesterday lol When I'm with him all I can think is why am I with this guy????? (and he is 22 and all I hear is how life sucks because we cant go out and do things like we used to) then we break up and a couple days later I am missing him like crazy I dont know what to do... besides my family hes pretty much all I have. All my good friends have either moved or bailed on me because they would rather be out partying and weve just grown apart... I feel so alone and I have no clue what to do... |

Hi, I am almost 21. I am not quite single yet. I have a 4 month old son. Everytime I try to leave my boyfriend he does the guilt trip and threatens me. So I am afraid to leave. I don't want my son taken from me. He swears he never will, but when he is mad he threatens to fight for him. I can't see marrying him, or even being with him anymore. Too much drama. I just can't get the guts to leave. |

Hi, i am 23 and i have a 4mths old daughter, she is the most amazing thing in my life right now and forever. I am a full time bookkeeper and a full time mom and a part time student. the father of my daughter dose not help me with any finacial situations. I make sure she has everything she needs on my own. there are days i want to just give up but i keep going and one day he will realize that our little girl is going to need his help. BY the way he has 3 other kids and 1 on the way. And he dose not want to help me with mine can you girls belive that! |
