single mother
I am aingle mother of a beautiful little girl, she will be two in December. I would like to meet other single parents that I can talk to and compare stories with. I often run into other people with kids my daughters age that just don't get how I can raise my daughter on my own and they seem to look down on me for it. My daughters father has absolutely nothing to offer either of us and because of that, my child will grow up without her dad around. As if that isn't hard enough, i don't need people judging me or thinking that I am a bad parent because I chose to raise her alone.

I am a single mommy to a now 15 month old little girl.  I chose to have her on my own and to raise her on my own.  I wouldn't worry about what other people think.  The only thing that matters is your little girl.  As long as she is a happy, healthy, and well adjusted little girl, that is all that matters.  She has you and other relatives that love her very much.  She has everything she needs.  I know its hard and you are NOT a bad parent for raising her alone.  She is lucky to have such a caring mom.  Good luck!  Feel free to email me at Photo6555@aol.com if you need to talk.

Hi, I am also a single mom, I have a 4 year old little boy. I have been raising my son since day one. I found out I was pregnant after I left his dad and his dad then chose the easy way out as people like to say. When I was 7 months pregnant he commited suicide.

I want to share with you something a lot of people especially guys have told me. "I have the deepest respect for single moms. They do twice the work a married mom does." yeah  a married mom will argue cause she has the dad she has to cook and clean for too but think about it, we are stronger women because we are doing mom's job and dad's.

Congratulations on both your kids.

Dear Skye,

 

My son's name is Skye ...he just turned 4. I am sending you much love, support and honoring your path and your choices. I encourage you to stay focused on your journey and your beautiful child ...that is all that matters. Anything not coming from love and support and not helpful and expansive.

 

Peace

Dawn
