What woudl you do if the father of your child just disappeared into the thin air just to relise months later that he has married another? I am deverstated right now. What will I tell my son when he asks about his father? I really don't want to tell him he did not care and left us. It is so sad. Worse still, my income is so little. Am a stay home mom who works online on part time basis... Now am a single mother. tell me what would you do?

If that was me I would just forget about the guy and try to get child support for my children. If my husband left me out of the blue to return months later I would tell my kids that there day must have been a chicken and ran with his tale. Between his leg like a boy because me sti k around no matter what for there children.

Thank you it's one of my many talents making me people laugh. Yes child support is very important thing to get and if he tries to dyne the baby then I would stick to him by having a mandatory dna test.

I think that if my baby's daddy disappeared so suddenly I would definitely do everything I could top find him. I would do this at least for the sake of the child. If I found he father again, I would see to it that he took care of his child even if he had other responsibilities and relationships in his life now.

I would not tell my child that his father left us. I will still allow him to love his father. I think that it will help the child to grow up in a positive way even if the truth will hurt. Coz, I would be hoping that someday the father will realize that he has a child that needs his love, too.
It is really hard to be a single parent, but do not lose help. Seek help from families and friends for the meantime until you are able to find a stable job to support your child.

I can say that you really are in a complicated situation, i hate men who do such things. If i were on your shoes i will just forget about that guy and while your son is still young, keep the sad fact for yourself first and explain things to him when he's old enough to accept the truth. Being a single Mom now is really hard but it's life and since you're a parent, you just have to work more for your kid. But the decision is still in your hands and it's up to you if you will ask the father for support.
