Posted: 3/8/2007 7:57:47 AM | | I am a full time single dad from Newfoundland and proud of that fact - if I wouldn't have stepped up for them who would...........child welfare. My kids need to know they are wanted and loved - I will do that for them as it was shown to me. These lil guys are my life - my daughter is 5 and my son is 4.............impressionable ages - so love and understanding is what they need and it's what they get. | |

Posted: 3/13/2007 1:05:22 PM | | i detest the term full time single dad ,or mom for that matter, as i also detest the term deadbeat dad . i am a full time single parent . i am preforming all the duties of a parent as i love my child. his other birth parent chooses to not see him , support him financially or emotionally . no im not going to call her a deadbeat mom shes a deadbeat parent . we do it because we love our children much like most women | |

Posted: 3/13/2007 1:16:11 PM | I am a single Dad of three and I have found that many women who are attracted to me want a child and I will not have another child because I GOT FIXED. A lot of ladies these days are more selfish than 20 years ago....they want a baby of their own.
Of course the women that have already had kids might not want anymore...
well, Peace out!!! | |

Posted: 3/13/2007 4:09:52 PM | Ok, I may not be a full-time single dad but I am a single father of a wonderful daughter who will be 3 in June. I usually take her for 10 days out of the month. The other days, I am looking for work so I can support my child.
I hate the difference between deadbeat parents and the parents who actually try to do something so that their child is supported. I think if the parent is making an effort, they should not be jailed for being behind in support.
There are many worse parents out there who make no effort to see or take care of their children and I think those are the ones that should be put in jail or imprisoned. | |

Posted: 3/14/2007 7:18:43 PM | | well i am not a full time single dad but i am a full time single mother and foster parent too i think that a single dad is wonderful and would think that if you can raise your child on your own thats a big step for most men as lots of them run the other way (not in my case)keep up the good work | |

Posted: 3/28/2007 6:25:32 PM | | Wow, that must be difficult for you. I can certainly appreciate the pressure that you must be under, I am a single mother of a 3 year old boy...he is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I hate that your children's mother made that decision, she is missing out on life's greatest pleasures...her own kids. Good luck I wish you all the best. | |

Posted: 3/29/2007 6:09:03 PM | | Hey, I'm older with a 10yr old girl and a 13yr old boy . They live with me full time, I love every minute of it . They go to their mothers every second weekend, which gives me some free time . Just wish I knew what to do with my down time ......Geeze, guess I'll clean their bedding ETC,ETC,ETC. I believe you have to stay involved, whatever it might be. I've coached my kids in multiple sports, { never ever favoured them over another child} I've taken them skiing, water sports, tennis, etc............ Just stay involved, keeps you young too. good luck to all those single parents out there ~~~~CP | |

Posted: 4/8/2007 3:11:23 PM | im also a full time singledad its surprising just how many there is out there.
ive had mine for 16 months now as they wanted to live with me after my marriege ended with there mum so i gave up things and changed my life so i can concentrate on em.they do see mum every 2 weeks for a day n night.
to be honest i l;ove it,it as its moments but knowing im playing a major part in my kids lives as they grow up is a brilliant feeling.
perhaps just like many singlemums it mite be hard to find a partner who is willing to take someone on who as kids to me thats not really important as long as the kids are bein looked after by someone that cares and are happy thats what counts.
good luck to all singledads out there and singlemums too. | |

Posted: 8/19/2007 8:59:13 AM | | Any man can be a father but it takes someone special to be a dad. I'm a single dad and I grew up without a dad so I know what its like. I think its great that more fathers are getting their children. A dead beat parent could be either sex and its about time that the dads are getting the kids more often. Not every mother is capable of being a mother. | |

Posted: 8/19/2007 3:31:58 PM | Im pretty much a single dad, my son is with me 90% of the time, I have a lot of respect for all those single parents, male or female, that do all they can for their children. Me and Aiden do lots of great things together and are very close. He'll be 3 soon but already thinks he's old enough to vote etc lol
I agree with some of the other posts on here, a lot of women do seem to avoid a guy with kids, but I think that its actually a good thing really. If a child scares them off, then they probably weren't gonna be the right person for you anyway. Best that they never become a part of your life in the first place.
Obvisouly its the same the other way round, single mothers lose out to women with no children too, but on a whole, its gotta be best to wait that bit longer for the right person.
Its a shame, but its the way of the world i guess.
