what is your definition of a single parent?I'm tired of hearing people say they're single parent when the kids are always at home with grandma and all the other people that live with you.

I hear ya OP! I'm not one to judge, but am tired of hearing some complain about how rough they have it when the other parent is involved and grandma watches the kids all the time. It could always be worse!

yeah, tons of differences among those that say "Single Parent".
Sure, an interested "other" parent would be nice. Not possible.
Family would be great, park the kids there and go party. Not happening, no family.
Neighbors, babysitters, a shared "play day" so Dad gets a break? Not.even.once.
Breathe a sigh of relief when the yellow bus takes the kids for 8-9 hours? We home school.
Oh, you get every other weekend off? SOLE custody here, visitation is rare and supervised by a professional psychologist.
I am not complaining. But there's a ton of difference between parents that shuffle the kids between school, family, babysitters, neighbors, play-day-shares, whomever will assume the duty versus the way we do it.
But I don't wonder where my child learned _____ bad word, overheard _______ adult conversation, how to make/use drugs, steal, cheat and generally be a "bad guy".
I think the payoff comes every day as I enjoy this role and in the long run we'll see who's done it right.

And I am so sick of people assuming those of us that are single parents have some great handout!

I am a single parent full time. I don't get off weekends, I currently get no child support, I do not get any gov't assistance, I provide 100% for my child. The only time I am not with my child is if I am at work, and then he is with a sitter that I pay 100% for. I may have a family member or friend take him for a short time if I have a doctor appointment, and I get a night out maybe once every 3 mths with my current work schedule.

I have a 60/40 time split with their father and my mom lives with me. She watches the kids after school until I get home. When the kids are home and I'm not at work, they are with me. I don't get child support. I pay it instead even though they are with me more. I still consider myself a single parent, but happily admit how fortunate I am. It was much different when my oldest was born. His father has never been in the picture.

My ex husband lives 300 miles away and takes the kids one weekend a month. Quite often the oldest doesn't go with them cause he is an adult who just turned 19 and has other things planned. Been this way since he was in 8th grade. Our other child is almost 7.

I was a single parent (my boys are amazing men now) ... no family in the state, no child support, no govt assistance, and I do believe all parents deserve respect if they are taking care of their children regardless of the support system they have or don't have... but it is without a doubt different if you are doing it alone. It creates a whole new set of challenges that those with family around don't have to face. But then again those with a lot of other people involved have to be more diligent about instilling their own values and not giving into others.

Yes. My son is with me 100% of the time. 24/7 365. He goes everywhere with me. I can't even remember the last time I had a baby sitter not including daycare lol. sometimes his father does watch him but that is few and far in between. I wouldn't trade it for the world though, and I'm so blessed to have him.

Well then I guess I am only 1/3 of a single parent. As I have my boys year round but my daughter goes to see her dad a couple times a month. No child support from anybody. No state assistance either. And yes grandma and grand pa live with me but they do due to health issues. I take care of them also. I work from home so I can care for my toddler and parents.

I absolutely 100% agree!!! I laugh when a man says he's a Single Dad and only has his kids every weekend or every other weekend. You may be a Dad and you might be Single, but you're not a Single Dad. I am a full time Single Mom to 4 boys. I have to say, some of the comments on here are ignorant. I had my oldest three born to a marriage and my youngest was my first relationship after that. Not all single parents have children out of wedlock and I'll tell you this, I had my boys when I was in love and never thought I would be a single parent. I didn't make the choice to be a single Mom. The MEN made that choice for me. Would I change the facts now? No way. My boys are better off without any support from their two Fathers. I only get a night to my self MAYBE once a month if I'm lucky. Other than that, it might be a couple hours here and there for appointments or meetings the boys cannot attend which also happens rarely. I am the only one who supports my boys and everything they need. The way I look at it, my boys have a remarkably close bond with me now and nothing will ever break that. So to all you "posers", look out because some day, you might not have all those people parenting for you... then, you'll really see how hard it is as a SINGLE PARENT!!!

I consider myself a single mother. I have my boys all but four days a month when they go to their dad's. I pay 100% of their bills and needs. I make all the dicisions when it comes to school, medical, or religious issues.
My ex husband is a deadbeat without a job. He pays me nothing, but the state says I cannot keep the kids from him.
My grandma takes the boys occasionally so that I can go out and have a social life. She doesn't want me to be alone, so it was her idea to get me out of the house. But that is maybe one night a month, if even that.
So, yes, I am a single mother.
My opinion... A single parent is an individual that takes care of their children a vast majority of the time or all the time. 50/50 custody does not make you a single parent, just a parent that is single.

What's the difference if grandma, cousin, sister or daycare watches your kid!? A single parent makes all the decisions regarding your kids well being. I would much rather have grandma watch my kid then daycare while I go to work or out on a date.

I am a single parent with sole custody of my daughter. I receive zero child support and make all the decisions regarding the well being of my daughter like school medical and religion. I have my daughter with me all year minus 1 week that her mom gets her with supervised visitation only. Yeah, I think that qualifies me as a single parent/sole provider.

I don't complain about being a single parent. I am the sole caretaker of my two sons, and have been for several years.

It can be hard, yes - but that does not mean I'm whining.

What I'm tired of is people bashing single parents for being single parents, and / or saying we chose this so we should shut up about it.

My daughter does not do the visitation shuffle. I work 2 jobs, I pay all the bills, the insurance, dry up all the tears, give the hugs, teach the life skills, and do the groundings.

The sperm donor became a drug addicted psycho that owes me over $80,000 in child support - that the courts said he is to pay.

He's doing the BEC - Bob and Weave with Courts for years and years and he still walks away free.

I consider myself a good single parent. We live alone together. I'm always there for my son. I help him with his homework, I roughouse with him, counsel him when he has issues. Slap him on the back of the head or thump him in the ear when he's being a turd. I'm a leader in his boy scout troop. I lick his wounds when he wipes out rollerblading. I take him offroading, camping and taught him how to shoot a rifle. I am mom and dad rolled into one. In my opinion a real single parent serves both functions. He's either on a sleepover or at a relatives if I go out on a date, and it's not every weekend either. I hear about parents who are never home. I know of kids with a mom and dad at home and neither of them do anything with their kids. For the most part, I think I'm doin' pretty good and I get compliments all of the time about how respectful my boy is, especially from old people.

There's no need for me to complain when many ppl have it 10 times worse. Most of my family lives out of the area although we are really close. I never understood how some parents (this isn't gender-based) just forget about their kids, but in the end the kids are better off without selfish parents. Hats off to those good parents who put their kids first!

I could've been a single parent. My woman WAS crazy. I could've left my kids to fend for themselves. I could be paying moutains of child support.
I could have left the one person that had my back from day one. Yeah she yelled threw things we fought even after walking away but she followed and tried to hit me with objects.

But I looked deeper into what we had and knew that we could change this. I knew that if I would have just sat down with her for a hour or two and just talked we would could have a better life together. Instead of getting angry when the lights got shut off we both got up and looked for a better job. Whoever got the job first the other had to stay home and watch the kids. Three boys. Three... destructive... wild... boys love them though.

Some of you just need to stop being selfish and listen to each other. Stop overriding each others chances to speak. It shouldnt be a battle. And for the men who got caught cheating. Let your woman know you will have sex with other women but you will try to avoid them. Ladies dont throw his condoms away. You protect yourself by keeping him protected. Men your women need fresh air. Take them away from the children every once in a while. Please. She truly needs a break. No perfect relationships. Everyone has something wrong. But look at the options.

Bash me all you want but im speaking from experience. Me and my woman havent had a serious argument in over 2 years out of the 8. Ever since ive been open with honesty and understanding of her feelings by listening and giving my takes on it we have been less frustrated and more on building our family.

I think a single parent is someone who is not married and has a child.

Yes I'm raising my girls alone without a dad and no CS. There is no help on my end.
