Just had a debate with my husband which has left me uneasy. He asked me what do I consider a single mother. I of course being a literally person said a mother who files single on her tax return. He said if a father has joint custody and pays child support that the mother shouldn't be considered a single mother because she has help from the father. He said he thinks mother who raised children without any help from the father are real single mothers. What do you think?

To me a single mother is literally single and doing it on her own. Whether he has some kind of custody. My dad had weekends but my mom was single and did it on her own
@karnamarie, yes. To most people it's the concept of not being with her father an living apart ect
@ang20 That's what I thought... lol I told most every woman and some men would definitely agree with me. To be the word "single" means relationship statues and I'm a mother so that of course falls into it
@karnamarie, yes. My friend has custody of her kid an the dad only has weekends, an has child support from him, to me she is a single mother. If both aren't together an half the time an co parent they are both single co parents. You're rigjt
A single mother to me. Is a mom who takes care and provides for her child by herself. Even if she got child support but the father wasnt around I'd consider her a single parent because she's raising that child all on her own with no help.
a single mother is a mother raising children without the help of a man, and no child support doesn't count.
@ang20 right but what about financial or custody? I personally think if a couple splits, even with him paying child support and having joint custody that because both individuals are single they would be single parents co-parenting right?
To me single mother is a mom who has to do all the work without the daddy around to help with diaper changes feeding ect. An someone who isn't with the father dating/engaged/married. Someone who lives alone an does all the work. Unless the dad has work away from them to help with income.
who are you to judge how a woman take care of her kids so what if she gets wic or food stamps or medical assistance that’s none of nobody business i seen to many of these post judging women of how they take care of there kids i’m a single mother of three and if i need assistance that’s my business not anybody else times is hard out here sorry if everybody don’t get help from there husbands or boyfriends or kids father it is single moms out here that is going to make sure there babies eat i said ...
What the hell has happened on here? What with all the drama, all I have managed to find is that someone has said somebody is lying about being pregnant wtf ...... What the hell is going on 😐
WHO DO YOU THINK HAS MORE POWER OVER NAMING HIS OR HER CHILD ? THE MOTHER OR FATHER?
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
I don't care what ppl think of me, but I'm seriously considering putting my baby up for adoption. I love her with all of heart, but doing this alone is hard. Every single night she just screams to the top of her lungs and I do everything to soothe her. I don't know what to do at all. I wish I had some kind of help. I don't have a single ounce of help. I don't know a single soul in Minnesota either.
single mother is thriving providing working hard for her little ones.
