Do American Single Mother's Get A Bad Wrap?
It seems as if single moms feel as if they are looked down upon if their marriage does not work out. And many divorces are due to abusive dad's. This mother's day how many single moms have to celebrate motherhood by themselves? I feel that there is a blessing at the end of this lonely road. Look at Oscar winner Jared Leto, who thanked his mother who raised a family by herself. There is something to be said for the trials of a single mom because it takes a village to raise a child.

Not as bad a wrap as single fathers, which I think is a damn shame quite frankly
Some single father's get a bad wrap to Kathleen. I know of a couple, this is true. Not to get off topic but, are you still going to be on that Ink Show? Please let me know so I can tape it. You should try out for Survivor too! I think you would win.
Maybe I'm getting old and out of the loop/not cool anymore, but if anything, I would think single mothers are commended, especially those that the father isn't involved in the child's life at all, they are mother and father. Maybe the Church would frown on singlemotherhood.
Maybe but it depends on who you're asking - I think they should be commended for doing a very tough job.
You know it’s funny because they probably would have done the same thing to Mary for carrying a child that did not belong to her husband. You live in a town full of Pharisees they think their spiritual, but really they are Hypercritics.

I know this question is discriminatory, but how would you Hubber moms like to spend Mothers Day?I've just texted my son (I know, it sounds cold, but he's at work) and told him I'd like to go out for breakfast or brunch, then go on a Nature walk. What would you like to do on Mothers Day?

I just wanted to take a second to wish all the Mother Hubber's here a very happy mother's day! So to all the working moms, single moms, stay at home, work from home moms and the very tired overworked moms (did I miss anyone?), have a great Mother's Day!"Who can ever measure the benefit...

Single Moms living with their partner or father of their children. When is it time to give the ultimatum? Let's get married and no more living together. A man's point of view is welcomed.

Moms, what do you want for Mother's day for $50-$100?
