single parenting
Discussions about single parenting. Venting is ok. Celebrating also ok.
For all of us who are raising kids without the financial or emotional support of the other half.

Sometimes teenagers are like very sensitive butterflies, breaking and disappearing at the slightest wind. You need to handle them with more care than the minute they were born.
It pisses me off.

After nearly 10y solo parenting I manage to not clap sarcastic.
When you have a routine and then need to change, itโs hard so fair play to them for making it through the weekend

I want a second brain. Not the one that lives in Notion but a physical one I can use when my first brain needs a rest

For the past two weeks a single-mom friend in Ireland and I are trying to call each other.
I missed her call today, and she missed mine.
