| full-time single dads Posted: 11/14/2006 5:23:17 PM | | I am a single father I have been 4 years now, 365 days a year 24 hours a day. I have a deep respect for all single parents now. | |

| full-time single dads Posted: 11/14/2006 6:01:01 PM | | Being a single parent in general is not easy - however - I have noticed that woman are much more accepting of a man's children than the reverse. Being a divorced mom does make meeting normal guys quite difficult. | |

| full-time single dads Posted: 11/14/2006 8:19:13 PM | Well I'm not completely single yet but separated from wife. I've been raising my kids on and off solo for the past three years due to my wifes drug addiction. I've come to the point to where we can't take it no more. I have three kids. 6,3 and 2. So to all you other dads and moms raising you kids with no help from spouse. Kudos. Cause I know just a trip to wal-mart is an adventure. heheh | |

| full-time single dads Posted: 11/14/2006 8:19:13 PM | | Nope you are certainly not the only one. The myth that fathers can't get custody is slowly fading, and if you look around you will see more and more fathers raising kids as single dads. I give all single parents credit, but you might notice that some people seem to assume that if a father has custody their must be something wrong with the mother or she wasn't interested - having fought a lengthy and costly (my sailboat, motorcycle, and vette are gone) I take offense to that quite often! lol I guess in the end all that matters is that being a parent is always more rewarding than difficult! | |

| full-time single dads Posted: 11/17/2006 7:14:45 PM | why can't all dads be like some of the men in here...I would luv for my son to have a dad that cared in his life...he's 6 yrs old and its been just the 2 of us since he was 6 months old...he's dad cared more about his friends and partying than his wife and child......so all you single dads out there that are taking care of your kids, keep it up, your helping to make the world a better place  | |

| full-time single dads Posted: 2/1/2007 6:32:17 AM | I think of single dads more of a bonus rather than a hindrance as they can relate to my every day life. I don't think I would date a man if he didn't have children.
Good luck & keep up the good work full-time single dads! | |

| full-time single dads Posted: 2/1/2007 7:17:02 AM | Let me tell you, your not the only single dad on here, or anywhere for that matter. I'm a single mother, with no help at all from the father. He's too busy supporting his NEW family, and me with the kids did a stupid thing and loaned him 3000 dollars 3 years ago and STILL waiting for my money back, in fact taking him to small claims court. I would much rather date a single father whom is responsible, and caring because to me a single dad is AWESOME, and I have great respect for them because it IS hard to be a single parent.
I salut all single dads  | |

| full-time single dads Posted: 2/1/2007 7:19:19 AM | | I have a lot of respect for single Dad's -- I honestly don't think they get enough credit for taking care of their children day in and day out. | |

| full-time single dads Posted: 2/1/2007 11:45:56 AM | | i got a question im begining to wonder weather women are botherd that single dads exsist and weather they should approach us lot. i dont seem to understand them... and never will but as a single farther myself. im finding it very hard to attract women now. not that it bothers me to much but i think guys like myself should be very appealling to women. only as far to say that if a guy has children on his own that than should be a good sign. only as to say that well it proves that we are a rare speices. like the bengal tiger or panda. not alot of men can take on such a responcablity. but thats my way of thinking. anyone to add a comment or mayb thoughts from women. | |

| full-time single dads Posted: 2/1/2007 11:59:01 AM | Hello all single dads! I have noticed that there is more men out there who are caring and watching their children on their own. Its awsome how strong you guys are with it, my sisters ex watches their two kids and I hate to say but he is doing a better job with them and sometimes I call him for help for my son KUDOS to all of you! | |

| full-time single dads Posted: 2/8/2007 4:38:13 AM | I think it is truly amazing that there are dads that step up to the plate. Im a single mom of 2 boys ages 5 and 19 months. I know that it is hard on me but I make it. I know society must really come down on yall for being single dads but I say as long as the child is well cared for then that is what matters. I would love to meet a single dad in the arkansas area myself because I know that they would understand what im going through. You guys keep up the good work! Yall are just as capable as us women to take care of kids and I wish more guys would step up to the plate, if not to be a single dad like yall, then to at least be a dad for the kids that is in their wifes care. No matter what kids needs there dads! I love sports, and nascar, fishing, camping, and all the great outdoor stuff so I know that I will be able to teach them all of that but it just isnt the same without a guy. (oh and yes im very southern if yall cant tell by all the yalls that I have added in here LOL that is the one word that I say all the time)
I hope to hear from some of you guys and maybe yall can give me some clues as to how to be a better single mom of 2 boys. | |

| full-time single dads Posted: 2/8/2007 6:30:17 AM | Well this is my first post ... I am a single dad of a great grl she is 14 and man things have changed for me... I just got custody not long ago still adjustting to the whole thing... I did 4 yrs ago dedicate my life to my kids Stayed single so on the weekends i had them they didnt have to spend time with me and my g\f....and i figured there mom was jumpin around enough for both of us..... My daughter seems alot happier here with me ...she actually told me last night was the first time in forever that she had nothing to worry about... god that made me spechless....

| full-time single dads Posted: 3/8/2007 3:36:20 AM | I salute all Solo dads. Its not easy being the mum and dad. Im a single mum with a 13 yr old girl, and at the moment its headache material for me cause my daughter is at that age where she just wants to go out and do her own thing. Still have to hold the restraints cause she's only 13. When you are a single parent yu basically have to be God eg nurse, counsellor, bank manager, teacher, cleaner, cook, the list goes on. I like to call myself a House Executive. Dont give up or give in cause you are doing a wonderful job. Its not easy but it has its rewards, especially when it comes to love. As Ive always said you can always replace the partner but not the kids. All the best to you and your family. Hey life goes on. Enjoy your kids while you have them and dont forget you have dreams to pursue too. All the best.
