I did over 15 years ago. That's why I'm a single parent now.

All the time. And my husband even helps raise the kids and helps out here and there. I bet in the days of yor, when men were only expected to make money and come home and fart on the couch with a pipe and a paper, it probably felt even more like a single parent household.
Probably why women are more and more opting to just go to work and not get married. Men have and are teaching us to not need them!

YES! My husband works hard and spends a lot of time at his job. He also goes to the gym regularly, is in the process of helping a friend build his house...among many, MANY other things that keep him from spending time at home with his family. It gets more than frustrating at times. I recently sat down with him and told him that I felt he had to get his "priorities strait" because our children and I need him too. There are more important things than money. He also has to remember that he has made a commitment to me and to our children that goes beyond providing financially for us. All the money in the world won't buy back the time he misses out on spending with us :)

i'm an intruder through selection and through stress. i do not go with to be an element of it and that i'd not be popular even if I did again. i became no longer popular even as i became in with those kinds for a short time. i'm somewhat too diverse in various of concepts for them to ever be comfortable with me. with the exception of that i don't like the hormonefest and that i'll do without the dramatics, whinyness, boredom and a pair of-confronted behaviour that incorporates being interior the organization of a group of different moms to me. Mommy cliques are like the different clique. Cliques commence round 9 or 10 years previous, and if someone receives into the habit and mentality of being area of one in all those team, they could under no circumstances outgrow it and their social skills under no circumstances bypass previous who sits at which hypothetical lunch table. i have not any advice for you, except to think about in case you extremely go with to be an element of one in all those team. they might seem staggering on the outdoors, yet once you're on the interior, you should in all likelihood locate that those females are deeply insecure and the clique behaves the same way little ones used cliques once you've been a baby: hearsay spreading, underhanded meanness, social stress to do particular issues or verify judgements, shunning, all less than a veneer of meant fellowship and 'help'. it is no longer supportive, a minimum of the girls I hung round for a lengthy time period weren't. The tear you right down to make themselves seem or sense empowered, all with a grin on their face. because I were given drained of that immediately, I only settle for my position as a pariah of that area of society and performance made my acquaintances elsewhere. i'm the only one in all my significant social team who has a baby, and that i'm comfortable with that because they're a lot less of a drag to be round. that is my area of interest, and it is tremendous. you only ought to locate yours, or make one for your self. do not attempt to be an element of a collection of those who of direction are not in touch and who ought to maximum in all probability drag you down. locate those who carry you up and make you satisfied, no count number number in the experience that they are father and mom or no longer.
