There’s been times, as a single Mom, that other people have carelessly put us in a lot of danger because it seems they don’t understand what it’s like

to need to do everything alone. Not that I expect anyone to care, but sometimes I cringe when I think about times my son could have really gotten hurt because people are so selfish and clueless. I had to avert their disaster when I truly needed to make sure my son was safe. Sucks.

Perhaps you and some other single moms can sorta help each other out?

I think people do care but are perhaps unaware of the situation..

@bookerdana They are unaware, caring or not, they put us in danger.

I have tried over the years, but I rarely ever meet other single moms. I think it’s because we’re all strapped to our kid(s) lol we don’t get out of the house without a sack of responsibility on our backs.

I admit too that I get jealous of people living in traditional family dynamics, even when they all seem miserable, at least they have safety together. My family passed away, so I still hold that hurt too.

I’m a kinda butthurt about it to be 💯 but I also kick ass everyday for my kid. It is what it is.
