3 babies too many? lots of fun I say. it'd just lonely n tuff because you can no longer hang with the singles w/o kids they can't relate. or maybe I can't bring myself to abandon them just for a fling. love my babies or you'll never have a chance. :) they get to choose if your right for daddy. I make the rules I completely agree. People keep telling me its over because I have kids but, These guys are what I'm looking for. The one who understands what I'm going through without just judging. |

Hi
I think single dads are great! It is a lot of energy to be a parent and even more when you dont have a partner to help or at least vent too... :) my hat is off to all single parents who put their children first. |
|
|
|
The ones who step up and do the right things for their kids are the best :)

I think single dad's are hardworking, they didn't put in much effort in their relationship with their ex wife, lonely, second hand, not as young, wiser, insensitive to emotions, immune to crap. But he's a good man if he takes care of his kids. Maybe I didn't want a relationship with a woman who decided to throw her life away on drugs instead of helping me raise the kids??? Heya Hippie!!! There ya go....see, like I said in my post. |

I am a 23 yr old single father of 2 with my 3 yr old daughter in my care full time. I tried to do everything for my ex but she didn't know how to appreciate anything. One day she just took my 1yr old son and left without even a letter. I know that she only has him so she doesn't lose her pension. I am currently trying to get custody of my son as well. I have had to sacrifice my job as a builder because I couldn't find a preschool who would mind my daughter from 4am onwards. I even had to move back in with my mom. I would do anything and everything for my children and I feel selfish to be thinking about myself and a relationship with somebody. I don't know how to date, how to even prove myself worthy to a woman. It's a scary feeling thinking that I might not ever be able to find someone that I can love, touch, hold, feel, admire and spend the rest of my life with. I am not looking for a mother for my children just a special someone for myself. If anyone has any advice pls feel free to comment. Thank you.

huh....to be a single dad is not good because you can't give your kids a better life,am still a single and I know the hell I face about my daughter Let me ask you a question, what are you going to do just walk away from your daughter? NO I doubt you will. I am sure that you will work your a$$ off just like every single parent does to give their child the best you can. You know what is hell? NOT having your child with you to raise! Have you actually? stopped and thought about the rewards that you get for raising your daughter? Or I guess I should ask what is hell about raising your daughter? Do single parents give their child every single thing they want? Maybe not. BUT I will tell you this, single parents can give as much love as their child needs. It is not like the other parent won't be in their life, at least in my case. My boys go see their dad often, sure their expectations would be for us to get back together but they know that will never happen. What you need to do is thank God every day that you have your daughter and you can teach her the right path to go when she is on her own. Be there when she needs you and enjoy her as much as you can. Kids do not stay small for long. Good luck and I hope more single dad's really do not think being a single parent is hell. |

I am not looking for a mother for my children just a special someone for myself. If anyone has any advice pls feel free to comment. Thank you. Honestly, I met an amazing man when my youngest was 9 months old. He asked me out for a date and I told him that I would ask my mom to watch him so we could go out to dinner. He actually said NO JUST BRING HIM, IF WE ARE GOING TO DATE..THAT LITTLE MAN WILL BE PART OF OUR LIVES. So we packed him up and out to dinner we went. Not one single time did we have a date unless we took him with us. If someone can not accept your children, then you do not want to be with them. In these times, I think being a single parent is accepted with out anyone thinking to much about it. I would say take them to the park and let them play, maybe you will meet a nice single mom that is taking her children there. Just because you have kids do not mean your life is over. There are women out there that can not have children and would love to meet someone that does have them. Be proud that you are a single dad, take care of them the best that you can. Always keep them clean, boys are harder to keep clean then prissy little girls. You said that you only have custody of your daughter...maybe you will get the son also. I don't know if you are religious or not but if you are, take her to church and let her meet new friends at church. This will also give you a nice place to meet new friends. SINGLE PARENTS RULE...WE HAVE TO FOR OUR KIDS!!!! GOOD LUCK AND NEVER GIVE UP YOUR SEARCH!!! |

Just wondering what women think of a single dad, I was reading a lot of these posts and theres a lot of questions about single moms, so just wondering. It takes a over strong individual to be a single parent. And it takes an even stronger man to step up to the plate and raise a kid on his own. I commend you, and the other single dads out there. Too many men don't step up to the responsibility of being a father in general, so kudos to you. |

yes your right im a fulltime single dad and mom not around NEED ADVICE ABOUT 9 YR OILD DAUGHTER PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE What exactly are you needing help with??? I've been raising kids since I was 13. Started with my nieces and nephews, and then had my own after 21. I'd be willing to answer questions to the best of my ability. |

I brought my son up from the age of 7, because my ex decided 1 day that she wanted the life of a single woman again and didn't want my son there anymore. So he came to stay with me. Hes 21 now and not long left home. He despises his mother, because of all the lies she spun him and the broken promises over the years also. I don't hate he as she gave me a good kid, but I pity her for what she missed out on with my son growing up! I'll admit though that I would have been lost if it wasn't for my mum helping out so I could work also. I'll never be able to repay her for that. At the end of the day, we're not all bad.
