Whats the hardest thing about being a single mom?

Hi heart2u! I guess it's very hard for you being a single Mom. I am of the opinion that a kid need both the parents and when there is only one available you have to give more attention to the kid and bring them up properly. You should spend quality time with your kids and make it a point to express your love to them whenever possible.

my bestfriend is a single mom and i think the hardest thing about it is being strong when everything else doesn't go right. compared to me who have a husband, he can not afford to be weak and ask support from him. she must learn to do things and work harder compared when she has a partner. another thing that she has difficulty in doing is being the father at the same time the mother. there are times that her child is looking for a fahter-figure inside the house and she can't show one.

I agree with you completely. I hardly ever get a break I am a single mom of 2. I 2 daugthers 5 year old and 9 month old 2 different Dads.It as been over 1 year almost 2 since the last time I been out. I love my kids with all my heart but I hate dealing with their Dads.

I'm a single mom of 2, 22months and 1 month... And the hardest thing i find is being alone most of the time. I cant stand being alone, but it's something i have to get used to. Dealing with my oldest daughter's dad is just impossible so i stop contacting him for anything. He doesnt want a relationship with his daughter i'm not going to force it on him.

The hardest part for me is finding a couple of hours a week or so to unwind without worrying about my baby and nephew. Then it's trying to muster the energy to play with the boys after working two fulltime jobs. I do have family down here to help out, so I'm thankful for that. I don't even bother with my son's father. The only contact I have with him is through the courts. Blessed Be
