What is like to be a single mom?

Well I am not exactly single. But I am a military wife. And for those of you out there that are in the same boat as me you may agree. Our guys leave for weeks months or even a year at a time. The responsiblity to do everything is all on me. I cut the grass, change the oil in the car, take care of the kid, the dog, all the bills and still do my other jobs as well. It is a little overwhelming but I do not work so I do have mroe time to do it then a working single mom. I give those ladies 2 thumbs up. It is hard to do it for a few months or evne my year... I can not imagine doing it all the time. Great job mommies

I was a single mom starting at the age of 16.I wouldnt go back and do it any other way.Sometimes its alot easier to do it alone then with someone who makes oyur life hell. You learn and grow faster then alot of other teenagers.Sure your whole life comes to a stand still but if I had to go back I think it was probably the best thing that ever happened to me so far in life.
