why are you a jerk camper?? well...7 kids from the single moms you see..i think you just answered your own question. You arn't dating these women because you love and respect them...you are opening up your wallet trying to lure their kids into liking you so that you can get laid. And what a shame that these poor women havn't opened up their pretty eyes yet and seen you for the creep you are. Shame on you using these mom's as a booty call and thinking its ok just because you tried to purchase their children's affection.

Ethix you are 20.

Are you emotionally, and financially prepared for the responsibility of an instant family.

The worst thing a single parent can do is create a revolving door for their children of parental "figures" Whether it be a series of "uncles" or "Dads"

If you find someone great, if you aren't sure, don't get involved with a child only to abandon them when you move on.

Kilva..that couldn't be worded better...a revolving door is definatly not what any child needs.
When dating i always be sure to refer to my new friend as "mom's friend so and so" until I know for sure if that relationship is going to last or not.
I must say though that i am getting sick off all the guys here on the POF site who only want single mom's because they think "hey she has kids so she must put out". A single mother or any other respectable woman for that matter should never let herself become someone's booty call.

It is so sad that there are single mothers out there that will do what happycamper is describing. Sad for them that they can't have more self worth than that and for their children to have to be "taken care of" by a man that is only there to use their mom to get laid.

I don't know what kind of single mothers that you get happycamper, but I can gaurantee you, they are not of my kind.

I don't need or want any man to give me money to take care of my kids. I provide very well for my children all on my own. I manage to pay for daycare so I can work, I have managed to maintain a nice vehicle, a nice home, clothes and food for them, and I have even managed to take care of their wants too. My kids had a awsome Christmas this year and I didn't need anyone's help.

If I have a man in my life, it is because I want love and companionship, not because I need him for money or for sex.

lol..well said....too bad your not a guy carol...it sounds like we both have the same idea of what we are looking for in a man...too bad there are mom's out there willing to let themselves be used by creeps like camper and not enough guys out there who are willing to love and accept us for the great mothers we are.

Just came across this topic in the forums. I think most have said plenty about the "good" single moms out there. Yeah , theres ones who ruin the reality of being independant and grown up. I myself am a single mom. I only have problems with guys with locations..wanting to know if I can relocate..sorry,,easier for you not me. and When they find out I have 3 not one, its harder. Like the rest, I am not looking for a replacment for a dad, or a sugar daddy. And ones who are willing to try dating single moms are way to young. As for me personally. I am very picky. I dont mind single dads as well..but I read about the double standard..I dont think it is so much a double standard as looking at the bundle of kids under one roof if things happen to turn into a longterm or live-in situation. I myself, I wont date a single dad with alot of kids. I know sounds double standard. but I got 3..I dont want a brady bunch. I even had a guy wanting to know if I was willing to have more kids ...UGH.,.no thank you, my baby baring days are OVER!. sometimes things seem to good til you get one of those perks that just crash the dating scene for single moms.

Hey..let's hear it for the single mom's YEAH!!!!

But the big S right on my chest.

How about a single mom with a good career, house, kids, getting her MBA at night who just started training for a 1/2 marathon?

I want my future man to be a single dad...who is between 45- 50 please. Yes, I want an older man. If he likes the outdoors, wants something simple and fun, likes jeans, tee shirts, sneakers, french fries and ice cream...and mind boggling kisses...well..send him my way!! Please!!

First of all how in the world can you even concider kids as baggage , They are a guift from GOD not baggage . Myself i thank GOD for my kids every day , But i guess they are a few of you that feel like kids are just baggage .

Your children are not a gift to every other person on the planet, they are a gift to you and their father.

Maybe you could have used a better word then baggage? Lots of people ... anyone who has had a broken heart ... has baggage, my friend. I wouldn't refer to kids as 'baggage' either. Baggage infers more about unresolved problems or being stuck in the past. I wouldn't consider children as problems, although there are problem children. :P

I am not saying they aren't good people. I'm sure they are amazingly wonderful children. However, most parents feel that way about their own children. I just think it is naive to expect other people to feel the same way about them as you do.

there is nothing at all niave about me...for sure... thats truth, and I dont have to expect people to feel that way about my kids, they just do....fact again. Therefore, I am able to make a statement like that without feeling like I am patting myself on the back. No need for a debate, it is what it is, and they are....truly great kids, with a clue.
