Shedman01: If that is the case then his beliefs are such that he blames women here in this very thread for not making their marriages work and that each of them who have been single parents are at fault for being such. Not to mention he is stating such things in a very sarcastic and derogatory manner with eye rolling smilies backing up his personal feelings toward any other reason being offered as to how things end up as they do in many cases.

To have and hold a solitary belief that leaves no room for exception is to be close minded, judgemental, and in that singular belief at least arrogant as well. I have to be honest and say I have not seen a debate happening here, but rather a man who will not listen to anything a woman says regarding being a single parent because in his mind it has already been set in stone that it is the woman's fault, and is all to happy to insult, and degrade, any woman who tries to offer alternative reasons for situations.

Just my own thoughts shared on what I saw when I read through the thread for a break from math,


And that's how it shall remain for you...only thoughts, just as my comments are merely thoughts...

AutumnFierce: I think being a single parent is one of the hardest things. I dont think we get enough credit, its not hard enough to be a women but now Im a single mom because my daughters father can't grow and MAN up. It sucks. and its just not fair. He gets to walk away with no problem and act like he never met us and I am stuck here trying to do the best I can and it seems like its never the best for my Beautiful Daughter.. Does anyone else feel me on single parenting? It's hard, stressful and exhausting. Im hoping to meet some nice people on this website. local people so we can hangout. :)PEACE.



holy crap..my sons father is a child..i feel you girl!
being a single mom is hard. we have to play mommy and daddy. \
grrrr...men got it way too easy...well except when child support kicks em in the balls huh?

Mercedes1: Im all for debate and humour as gee Im a bunny

But I can see the others hurting and he just keeps coming at them with you should of done this and that and he seems to be an arrogant cold hearted person with the topic of being a single parent.

Ive enjoyed his posts on other threads but not on this thread where this subject is very sensitive to many.


I know Mercedes, I know.

But you can't save the world love. If people are hurting then it is because they are choosing to come in and read it. Now that sounds cold, but it is the truth.

I am a divorced mother and I could react a whole lot differently to this but I am in a forum where I have a choice.

The lady who is hurting very evidently feels attacked and I dislike that.

But in the end, they will never meet, so she could state her case and let him be.

Rebel, shut it now and get out.

X_REBEL: Yes i know the truth can be really mean...view me only as the spokesman. No one expect you to give personal details on this thread as it would not be wise to do so. As for getting my head checked...will be a waste of time and money... as i'll probably be declared insanely mad...capable of driving women mad... Don't really care who is nice to me as my world is not built on what people think of me...i can rely on myself and thus ensure stability in my life...Yes i have a constant battle with life and single mothers...
Maybe oneday i'll date one of your daughters...who knows
..


Ha-ha... grin Looks like you'll continue relying on yourself till thee end, as in DIY...

You remind me of this neighbor of mine: in his late thirties/early forties with a huge belly, somewhat educated but worthless nevertheless; collecting welfare and food-stamps for many years and talking non-stop like one day he'll giggle become famous, and really thin roll eyes, and will get married to a 20-y-o beauty who'll worship him...

grin The resemblance is stunning - had to share! peace cheers

Ashes.

I am truly sorry he hurt your feelings. He is bonkers yes, a true headcase.

You should have seen when he posted that all women should be locked up in cages!

Carnage it was.

Only you know how well you have raised your daughters, they too. You know you have done an excellent job, don't allow anybody else to make you feel inferior about this.

You have to be in control of that and should be.

I relish the day when he comes and tells us his women is pregnant.

God love him, he is a card and he may say how he sees it, but it is only words. For you.

Welcome to the forums and I hope we see you around more.
