Sweetiegirlz mail: Being a single parent in the ho
1) ~Thou shalt not cry over anything that is not a crisis.*Your kid's health is a crisis, a fire is a crisis....if you don't have a date in a month, or you can't buy milk until payday, NOT A CRISIS!
2)~Thou shalt do everything in your power to succeed and have "forward motion " in life. Go somewhere new, do something new, be SOMEONE the person in your mirror respects.
3)~Thou shalt make time for yourself and a strawberry bubble bath. Make cookies, paint your toenails, buy something that makes you smile.
4)~Thou shalt not open the chastity belt before it's time!
*date him, hug him, even kiss him but don't cross the line before it's time.
5)~Thou shalt be complete even without a "HIM" in your life. *Your worth is not measured by your social life.
6)~Give give give til it hurts. Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall she also reap. (read: karma, what goes around comes around, do unto others.....)
7)~Thou shalt instill tough love in children. *follow through or they'll NEVER respect you"
8)~Thou shalt not descend into the pit of self pity. * Go instead to the place of self preservation. Realize now that STRONG WOMEN LIVE HARD LIVES!!!
9)~Thou shalt take one day at a time *think back to all the times you EVER worried! About anything. You will discover.....You worried for nothing because the problem always came to a conclusion, with or without YOU.
10) Thou shalt Never ever give up no matter what. * It is a known fact that something will go wrong at some point, at some time, in some way that you are caught off guard. When the "wave " comes, surf it, don't drown in it!

Just want to point out though that there are some single dads that do a great job with their kids too...and have tough times as well...
I take my hat off to all young women struggling to raise kids, easy it isn't but with the passage of time pressures ease and things always get better.
So thumbs up and God Bless all of you.
