Well…you could take him to court, make him be responsible.

Yes it does…but it’s worth it in the end.
On the bright side: your son will be really thakful!
And don’t go to court…it just hurts the kid and wastes time and money and makes you unhappy. Take it from someone who knows :P

It doesn’t suck to do the right thing. Your child benefits from you and you from him. I’m very proud of you. Your ex? If he does not know the joy of fatherhood, then he is the loser by far! You are at home… on the computer albeit… but still with people that care about you.

well its 5:20 am down in south london………dont know why im still up, but hey i am lol……..

and surely someone as good looking as you, even with a child could find a guy easily. also from some of your posts you seem pretty smart, and have a big heart…..

and yes i am nice, but quite modest, even if i do say so myself :P lol

anyway how are we all feeling this morning. or evening. or whatever time it is

Plus it could be alot worse. It’s only 9:30 here, on a Saturday night… my girls are with their mom this weekend… and I’m STILL home alone. I’ll be slipping off to bed soon (again… alone)

really……where you from ?

California USA

oh i see. you go into their house……….thats one way to do it hehe

and apart from this bore deem now, how was your day?

oh do you now lol……
i can be whatever you want me to be :P

smart, unsmart, dressed, undressed……although thats weird as im a monkey!!!

hehe thats becasue we’re funny lol……..

not only that, but we know how to swing!!! hehe

you never know when that will be handy

well that sounds interesting……….
but it all depends on how you can handle the rope in front of you :P

and your half monkey lol…..that must mean you like bananas lol hehe

I don’t think you are lame.

You’re a good mom Eva. That’s gonna mean loads to your son in the long run.

I don’t think you should feel guilty. It’s normal. If you were always out partying and stuff while your kid is home alone, then you should feel guilty. You should be happy and proud that you’re such a good mom and a great woman.

How much is the child support? because alot of the times it’s actually more than what it should be. My moms one boyfriend paid $200 a month and according to her it doesn’t take that much. Considering thats supposed to be half the costs, not all of it.

Hey libragirl, how come you are alone? What happened to that 27 years old hunk you had fun the other day with? Didn’t work out? Did you decide yet what you want, older or younger man? A pretty girl like you should not be left alone and yes, you have all the right to want to have fun. Just make sure you don’t mess with a married man! Cheers.

It must be tough. I cant even imagine. But take it from a guy that was raised by a dedicated single mom, your doing a really great thing for your boy.

So why not have a guy you trust over to your place? That way your not alone, and your not depriving the rest of the world from seeing you.

Hm, you could be 13. But things don’t end too well for her

im so very proud that you have taken this chance in life to be responsible and mature when it comes to raising your child. however, from my own experience, i have to tell you… although your son is so young, your son will see one day that his mommy loves him oh so very much. he will also see what a low life daddy he has…. and i know right now those are just words… because i remember being told the very same words… as my babies grew up into teenagers, they actually came to me and told me what they saw in life and their parents… so they do grow and see what is going on around them…

HOWEVER… your son is not a baby. your son is more independent than what you probably want him to be at this age…. BUT.. you cant stop living! having a little mommy time doesnt mean that you dont love and respect your son! it means that you are taking the time to live and love life, making his world a better place. so make time for yourself, whether it be to get your hair done or just go out with a few friends… you deserve it.. and your son will never hate you for that… this i promise you!!!

but you have to remember.. by you not being completely happy or you being in that shell… you are not your happy lil self.. and although you try to hide your sad moments, your son can see and feel it… so treat yourself for a night out on the town… even if you do it once or twice a month… as long as you know where your responsibilities are… there is absolutely no harm in making yourself happy as well.. and think about it… i have noticed in my own life… the ‘father’ would not take the child due to wanting me to stay home…. dont let him have that satisfaction!!!

well, best of luck on you fixing things to make yourself happy too..

Thanks for replying to my post, i read yours and my first thoughts are that you should be proud of yourself for taking on responsibilities, especially with a child. Be very proud, a lot of people will praise you for that, but most of all your child will also.

thanks again for your comments. I love my wife and my 3 kids, starting a new life would be very difficult. So you are a single parent?

I’ve been a single mum of to little rascals for two and a bit years now. Its really tough my ex is having another baby and got a good job that he regularly goes on course for, for months. It can be so frustrating but at the end of the day (and I know you already know it too) its so worthwhile and when you get that cuddle from them or they say something really funny, you know who’s really missing out! keep up the good work! They grow up so fast, your free time will come and then you’ll wish they were little again!
