I hate, hate, hate, when people use the whole "I'm a single mom" thing to try to beg or gather sympathy.I'm sorry, being a single mom is not an excuse for not taking care of your own.I've been a single mom for 5+ years. I work my butt off, and go to school part time, to provide for my kids.  I would never even consider going online and begging people to give me things for free because I'm a single mom. I work. I make sacrifices, and I get stuff done. The words, "I'm a single mom" very seldom cross my lips.Being a single mom is tough.  It's exhausting.  It's stressful.  It's not a life I would have chosen, but it happened, and I deal with it.  But, I'm a mom. I take care of my kids and provide for them.  My marital status has no impact on that. The whole using it to beg for sympathy crap is ridiculous, and it puts a horrible stereotype out there that we all end up facing.There is such a stigma attached to being a single mom, especially when it comes to dating. There are people that think single moms only want to find a guy to provide for them and their kids, be a daddy to their kids, and provide health insurance. I know there are some that do this, and it makes it hard on the rest of us. Heck, I don't need or want someone to take care of me and my kids. I do that. I want someone to share life with.Oh, and while I'm at it. It absolutely drives me nuts when someone claims to be a single mom and they're not.  Just because your husband works out of town for a few weeks at a time does not make you a single mom.I guess it's just that I hate that whole victim mentality. OK, I'm better now, lol! 4951

And what about a single woman with the baby daddy living with her so she can get the free stuff just makes me furious.  I have watched some great ladies end up being single moms and they work, go to school and do what they can to make it.  Then I have watched the takers of this world.  Have babies, work under the table, baby daddy living in the house and then wanting me to be excited at everything they get free and Wow, aren't I just so happy for all the unearned tax income they get in Feb.  I will support anyone doing it right...but the trash ruins it all for the good ones. 4951
