Posted: 3/17/2005 9:12:13 AM | | well i'm not a single dad =) single mom to a 4 year old (almost 5 now) anways- to answer the other part of your question- Previously I had a stupid rule- even though i was a single parent- i would never date a man who had a child/children. However in the past few months i have completely changed my thinking- Men without kids/men with kids who arent involved in their lives.. just didnt seem to understand the whole me having a kid thing / my relationship with her father--- I started dating a man who was divorced and who has a very active role in his 2 daughters lives... it's been wonderful. we can relate in so many more ways- and i can understand his feelings and his relationship with his ex and he can with mine- whereas with a non-parent i was dealing with "well why talk to him" and jealousy for no reason.. sure him having kids makes things more complicated on some levels.. but it also makes things so much more easier on so many others-- plus it's fun to go on dates and bring the kids and do fun things like going to the zoo together with all of the kids. So if i ever end up being single again- i will def. be looking for someone who has a child/children and is an active part of their life. (ie- i dont want someone who has a kid- but the kid lives 10 minutes away and they don't see them for 6 months) | |

Posted: 3/18/2005 3:17:24 PM | I'm a full time single dad going on 11 years now, It's been hard, But I've loved every second of it, His mom left 2 weeks after his 6th birthday for another man who she was messing with sence our son was a year old, She married him had a child, Now she's a single mother, WOW
what a shame, I really feel for her, ( N O T) I feel for her child, That when comes to see his older brother says he wishes I was his father, I would have been if not for her leaving, d*mn

Posted: 3/18/2005 4:20:07 PM | There are lots of full-time single dads in Canada. Well, at least in BC. I know of 7, not including myself. I have been a full-time single dad for 6 years. I have a beautiful 9 year old. I couldn't imagine not having her in my life. I am the lucky one.........

Posted: 3/18/2005 10:24:40 PM | It's become a very Selfish world if you stand back and look at the grand sceme of things...
I know a couple that has 6 kids between them... All of them living in the same house... And I use to be around them quite a bit... I can't ever remember either of them reading to any of the kids or playing any kind of games with them... Nothing... They eat more Take out food in a month then most people eat in a year... It's really sad... The only reason the guy has custody of the kids that are his is because the at least 2 of the 4 were molested in one way or another... His 2 oldest are by one woman... The 2 middle children are by another... The next to youngest belongs to the current wife and the baby is theirs together... One from the each of the 2 woman were molested so he was able to take custody of all the children because of that...
I've often thought they the kids would have been better in Foster care... Sad to think that isn't it???
Neither of them do ANY house work, it is divided among the 5 oldest... Ages being somewhere between 9 and 14... I can't remember exactly how old they all are... I know the youngest will turn 4 her next B-day...
2 of these children are in Consuling due to the molestation they had happen to them, there is another who Needs Major consuling but the father refuses to send him...
Every time I'm over there I feel so sorry for those kids... 2 boys couped up in a room about the size of a jail cell... 3 girls couped up in another one about the same size and the baby sleeping where ever she falls... He sleeps on the sofa while she sleeps in the bed... They never sleep together... They both go to sleep before the baby, so the baby is running around a house at midnight or usually well after with no one around...
It's sad enough that fathers or mothers abandon their children, but to Abandon them and live with them at the same time... Just So Sad...
