A number of times I've seen where one parent wasn't able to raise the kids. Often due to being absent in one way or another, drugs/alcohol, work, illness, etc. For some reason they just aren't capable of being there all the time, or occasionally not at all. Not right, or fair, but sometimes it's the way it is.
Hopefully you have a supportive family and friends.bouquet

Damn finest statement I have seen in here for a long time.

Answer to the silliest question of a long time.

Why do parents have the word 'single' preceding a very important role.

I am a mother, who is no longer to my children's father.

Whether I am single or not does not come into the equation, they have a mother and a father.

Question which should never ever be questioned.....and moms, specially you should know since they came out of your stomachs(unless they mistakenly misplaced them in your cribs)...

I couldn't answer your poll as you didn't give proper options.

Anyway for what it's worth I'm a Father and while I don't live with the kids I have raised them and since we seperated 7 years ago I have spoken to them every day and see them at least 2/3 times a week.
My ex is not alone in raising our children.

Well said Sommerauer the word single does not come into the equation as parents......

When you conceive those kids that makes you a Mother and Father(parents) for life.......

As adults we may choose not to be together and part
You may wish to speak to the other half only through a medium (ha,ha)

Each has their own circumstances and baggage but we owe it to our kids that they have a Mum and Dad.

It took two to make them and it takes two to responsibly raise them

Hi Tamarin

Indeed, I so dislike it when people tag me as a 'single mother'. I look at them, go all frosty, raise my eyebrow and they cannot cope, so they become all insulting by stating that I am rude. I so love it, when a person tells me what I am.

I am a mother, nothing singular about that.

And yes we do owe it to our children, I absolutely agree.
