Single Parent Families Reviews

I myself am a single parent, I was 'single' to begin with though. I am one of those open minded people and sort of allows and accepts near enough everything that goes on in the world today at times, and having to be a single parent has never phased me. The father of my two was a friend, and I believed were becoming more than that, but ...  Read the complete review

After reading a few of these and mostly seeing views from Single Mum's or comments regarding single Mum's I'd thought I'd give a single Dad's view. I've been a single Dad now for around 3 1/2 years. I've had relationships in this time but since late 2005 it's just been my two children and myself living at home. The question I get ...  Read the complete review

I am lucky enough that I am not a single parent , but I have alot of friends that are in that exact situation themselves. I often see how much more of a stuggle it is for single parents, than with 2 parents. I do not agree though that the parents should stay together for the sake of the children, if they obviously hate each other and are making ...  Read the complete review

I had my first child when I was just 16 yrs old, my second followed when I was 21.

I use to stay at home, look after the children, make the house a home with the little we had and enjoyed it. My ex would hit the pubs and ...  Read the complete review

Another great media story for guys when it comes to not being cleaned out for once in the divorce courts was the story featured in the Times about a rich heiress who married a penniless Eastern European refugee.

In a week that three prominent single mom news stories have dominated the news agenda, that of the ghastly Heather Mills, the feckless mother of Shannon Mathews, and the hippy in India who's pretty 15-year-old daughter was murdered after being left alone with a smorgasbord of drugs, it's been proof enough from these stories and images that GB ...  Read the complete review

In the news today there has been some contrasting views of single mothers in the UK. On the one hand you have Heather Mills bemoaning the fact that a mere £35,000 a year will mean that the daughter of Paul McCartney will have to travel B class in future. That really does show just how in touch Ms Mills is given that the rest of us have never even ...  Read the complete review

Being a single mom of a wonderful ten year old son can be difficult at times but also incredibly rewarding. I got pregnant at twenty by a man that could have cared less about kids. I, on the other hand, had always wanted a child, with or without a man. There are days when I wish I would have waited until I was truly in love before having a ...  Read the complete review

I am a 24 year old single mum with a 3 year old daughter and a full time job. I get so tired its horrible. Men don't want to know because they think they might get trapped or that i'll be restricted in the things i can do (which is true) because of my daughter. They don't understand at all. I haven't been out except for food shopping, clothes ...  Read the complete review

If you had said to me when my two sons were born that before the oldest was 10, I'd be a single mum, I would have laughed and told you not to be silly.

Why should having only having a one-parent family affect your life? If you are a child in a one-parent family you still have the same opportunities or better, as other children in two-parent families. If you are a parent in a one-parent family you still have the same opportunities or better, as over parents in two-parent families. ...  Read the complete review

Not only did I feel embarrassed, she did as well. I'm 18 and I have never seen, met or even know the name of my ...  Read the complete review

It is only now, ...  Read the complete review
