[QUOTE="klmno, post: 482038, member: 3699"] OK- I understand. I was a single working mom with no support from anyone and it's very hard, as you know. It;'s not the same as someone who has a spouse in the home or family members who are helping. I would urge you to try to find friends or a group or something in your own area. Not that this board isn't great- it's been a life saver for me- but people tried to tell me that I needed a real-life support system ITRW when my son was about 12-13yo and I blew it off because I figured if I could handle working and raising an infant and preschooler on my own, I could certainly handle this. Boy was I wrong. on the other hand, who on earth do you make friends with in a situation like this? Married couples don't want to hang with single moms, normally. Single women can't relate, typically. So it's hard, if not impossible. I get that, too, and understand if you can't make it happen. But if you can seek it and have a chance, try. ((HUGS)) [/QUOTE]
