Well you know, when you got a chip on your shoulder and you go lookin for stuff, you usually find what you are looking for. Is this a problem all over, or is it just a michigan thing... I think it's you. Glad you said it first. :-) I agree! Joelle The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page - St Augustine Joelle |

He wasn't so worthless when you took him to bed...was he? This group seems to be more about the positive things and being a good parent. And that means more than just financial needs. Bjarki |

"Sandy" wrote in message ... As a single mother of 3 gorgous girls, when I meet someone new, and tell them I'm a single parent, I can almost see this curtain come down, and can almost read their minds. 1. She's looking for a husband. 2. She's wants a dad for her kids. 3. She wants someone to support her and her kids. Well, I'm not looking for a husband, and My kids have a father, worthless as he is. And I sure dont need anyone to support me...I support my girls and myself just fine with no help from anyone, not even their father, Is this a problem all over, or is it just a michigan thing....LOL Please, mind the crap, ie, fancy pictures, attachments, background colors, music, fonts, etc. Not to be rude or anything, but it really does make things hard to read, ESPECIALLY on a binary newsgroup. I'm glad I had the option to get rid of all the HTML and junk, or I would never have had the opportunity to warp my brain reading the above. Just the same as basically everyone around here, I, too, am a single parent. That's no secret. When I meet someone new and they find out I'm a single parent of a preschooler, they look at me and ask how old I really am, what I enjoy and how I manage. I won't claim to read the minds of others, since I can barely manage to read my own, but I have yet to get the feeling that this said new person assumes I'm looking for a husband, dad for my kids or someone to support me and/or my offspring. Perhaps the message you send to others, maybe not even knowing it, is "Please pity me!" Worthless as the father of your children may be, YOU picked him. YOU made the choice to reproduce with him, and to this day, I wonder why people tend to bash their exes when THEY are the ones who hopped into bed with them. If he's such a big loser, where does that leave you? You aren't going to find much compassion when moaning and bitching about your ex. Actually, that's one thing that the majority doesn't care much to hear about. Boo hoo. Daddy doesn't help out with changing diapers because he's a deadbeat! Waaah! Mommy's useless because she left me for the milkman, and she doesn't even pay!! Blame is a neat little device that you can use whenever you don't want to take responsibility for something in your life. (I believe that was Wayne Dyer who said that? Correct me if I'm wrong...) Please, spare us all. I don't think it's a Michigan thing. I think it's a thing all over the world when faced with people with crappy attitudes. -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet? |

Well, I'm not looking for a husband, and My kids have a father, worthless as he is. He is something to them. Remember that. I can not stand my ex... but they love him, so out with the bitter attitude. Feel free to vent, but please do it theraputically and not just to do it. And I sure dont need anyone to support me...I support my girls and myself just fine with no help from anyone, not even their father, Great! You are heading for a melt down if you do not have an outlet. Is this a problem all over, or is it just a michigan thing....LOL No. It is all over..... we all are here for support and at times, that support is a "get a grip". Welcome to the group. V Happy Holidays! |
