I myself am now just getting my divorce finalized at the end of the month. The amount of time varies with how comfortable you feel about seeing another person. It takes some time to get adjusted to the "single life". I have to agree that you don't want to introduce your children to someone that isn't serious. It's bad enough you had your heart broken by someone but you don't want your kids to go thru that over and over. It doesn't make you look good as a parent and your kids will grow up seeing you differently. Bottom line is there is no set time limit. It's all on how and when you feel yourself when you are ready.

First of all, as a Long Term Single Parent, let me give you a few hints:\n\n1.  Put the TV on a timer -- and Keep the control with you.  I used the Parental Controls built into my unit, and that was a way I LIMITED the amount of time that they had in front of the boob tube (and locked the Video Games in a Locking Cabinet -- I had the only key -- and once a week -- for an hour, they could choose which game to play -- but it had to be that they played together quietly -- after that .. the games went back into the cabinet).\n\nEach afternoon/evening is scheduled -- from the time they come home after school to bedtime.  I also made it clear that they would participate in certain activities -- like Scouting, an After School Program, and an Athletics Event/Program each season.  \n\nWhen they fought -- it was time out.  NOTHING -- no TV, no radio, no games, just do your homework or read a book -- and you had to be within sight of me while I was fixing the meal.\n\nEven small children can help with the chores -- list them out on a weekly schedule -- put the child's name next to a chore (and be sure to rotate them through all chores) and tell them you will check when they say they are finished -- and DO check -- and make them re-do if it is not the way that you know they can do it.\n\nHomework Time -- same time every day.  At least an hour to make sure that their homework is done -- and they would have to check off their assignments that were listed in their daily planners.\n\nIF fighting while out in public -- I would tell them and start walking to the Car right away.  We would NOT stay out and enjoy an activity or event IF they could NOT behave.  (and my children were disabled!)\n\nMake sure that you are WELL organized in the home.  Even the small children can put away their own clothes, or help you by learning how to fold laundry.\n\nSame with taking out the trash.  It is an easy job, and they can do it from an early age.

Yes , they do. They dont know or dont understand that it takes two to make a child and also two to bring him/her up. Single parents are not  role models for their children. Children need to see a mother and a father in their house.Otherwise, they will grow being very unhappy children.

Yes there is..It's called wellfare help..sounds awful i know..but this is about supporting your 3 kids till things get better in your life..and it will..it's just going to take some time...trust me the wellfare office understands the struggles of single parents and by u going down there to apply for the things that u are having trouble to make ends with...they will help u...so long as u are 100 percent honest with them...Number one..if u don't have medical insurance to cover the kids...u will get it right away..since u are a family of 4.(not including this guy)and u make 40 thousand or less u can get it..including foodstamps..(just untill things get better).U can also apply for public housing..sure that sounds awful..but there are alot of places that are decent as hell and u wouldn't ever know that the landlord allows section 8 people.(section 8 means the landlord gets there rent period no questions ask cause the state pays him u pay him just a little maybe only 100 to 200 a month only set back is u are on a waiting list..but it goes quick in the spring time..u can also get help with heat the list is endless..all u need to show them is all the kids Social security numbers,yours as well..proof of paycheckstub from your job and copys of all your bills that u pay.like car insurance gas bill electric bill ect ect..u will be flabbergasted on all the areas that the wellfare dept can help u with...Remember this is your tax money that is helping u so why not make it work for your kids\nthere is also a place called the YWCA not YMCA(thats for men)they help with apartments furniture childcare ect ect..i know u ask for financial help here..instead of getting a check to cover your bills..all that i mention above they personaly pay your bills for u..if u ever want to talk more to me please feel free to contact me through my name...Good luck sweety u can do it..and get rid of the abusive so called boyfriend u don't need this right now..u and your kids come first and nothing else..PERIOD

Dont give up hope, there is someone out there for you and he just might be at a place called "Parents without partners", it is a national organization that meets frequently to get people outta the funk they have been in playing the singles game.

There is HUD and Habitat for Humanity...those are the only ones that I am aware of.  Look on the web for some resources or programs that favor single mothers.  Good luck!

The list is endless! For me as a single parent it is also endless, but here are some of the top barriers for me. Lack of money, having to support dependants, working too many hours and not having enough study time,  commuting an hour each way three times a week year round, not being involved with campus activities so there is a disconnect from my peers, affordable safe and reliable childcare, fear of the unknown,  work simply being too hard, not having the necessary supplies to participate in class, problems with time management.

Unless you're a single dad...you're supposed to take them out. I think single dads should be praised today as well cause they're both moms and dads to their kids. So if you aren't a single dad, why don't you treat your family instead.

wheter or not it is practical is for you n your spouse to determine, i am a single mother of two soon to be four, and a full time student, it is never wrong to try n better your self educationally in order to provide for our little ones later, it may b hard n the child may not understand why u cant spend the time w. them that u jus were but as long as you keep commucation open w. the child, let em know what u r doing n why n even involve them whenever possible it is so worth it.
