When these types of comments are made..I'm very discusted with men that have no clue what goes on in a single moms life...the only "tougher" lesson we should have learned is to not date the men that are on your level!! The only mistake I made was going into a marriage too early...he was a sweetheart but he had no intellegence!! He later then because mentally ill...he couldn't keep a job and he began having seizures in his sleep...he now has a wife that can handle him and keep him in control..which is something I never could have done..I don't believe in having to control a man...I already have two babies why would I need another one that could spend all of our money on an entertainment system and not on the gas bill?? and get me pregnant to have the second child?? I am currently working part time 5 days a week and 6 hours a day..I have two babies and I'll be graduating this semester!! I've been taking about 2 classes a semester in order to graduate, it has taken along time but I'm getting it done!! I am engaged and he is happy to take care of everything...We have been dating for a year and my babies love him...the youngest one has recently been calling him daddy!! So the biggest mistake I made was not fully researching who I was dating and not knowing till after 6 weeks our first daughter was born that he had a sleeping disorder!! I'm a little round around the edges, but I've had two c-sections and I can't get rid of it!! only time I don't take showers is on a Saturday and I take one on a Sunday morning!! Saturday's are my "sweat pants" days!! I also don't blame my children for anything...I blame my ex for getting me pregnant for the 2nd time...and the tougher lesson I learned is not to trust anyone!!
Thanks
