This is a safe space to share the challenges and triumphs of solo parenting.
What's your story? Whether you're a seasoned single parent or new to this journey, everyone is welcome to share their experiences. Let's uplift and support one another!
I'll go first: I've been a single mom for 3 years now, ever since my son was born. It's just the two of us against the world, and it's definitely not always easy, but I wouldn't have it any other way. My ex checked out early on, so I didn't really have a choice but to embrace this solo parenting life.
The hardest part for me is probably managing the workload - all the responsibilities and decision-making falls on me. But I've learned to ask for help when I need it, and luckily, I have an amazing support system in place. My parents are always there to lend a hand or give advice if I need it.
The ups definitely make it worthwhile. Nothing beats that unique bond you have with your little one(s) when it's just the two (or more!) of you navigating this crazy world together. Every milestone, every laugh, every new experience - it's all so special and I cherish those moments.
I'd love to hear other people's stories and experiences, the good and the bad! We're in this together!
