  1. Single Parents Can You Please Help?...(more) 6-13-2013 2:09am (2 replies)
    Hello, I'm writing a book about single moms and am looking for some real-life tips from single moms. Can you please help me by answering a quick, easy question? It's really easy and will take less than 2 minutes of your time. Here is the question: What tip(s) would you give to a new single mom? The tip could be about anything at all that relates to single motherhood. If it would help single moms or help even one person then I would love to hear it. Please click this link to send me your answer. http://youranswerinabook.com/single-moms/ The link is safe to click and this is all totally free. You won't be asked to buy anything, you don't have to register for anything and you won't be put on any list. If I use your answer in my book I will give you credit for it (or if you prefer you can stay anonymous.) I appreciate your time and help. Thank you.

      if she does not have lots of close family who wants to pitch in and help for free. I had a nanny for 9 years ($$$$), so that I could go to work, and have the flexibility to go out after work, or do work events in the evening. Day care does not cut it. Also, costs of having a child and raising him are a lot more than one thinks, even if one thinks that one knows. It is stressful to be a parent, and even more so a single parent. Money helps a lot.

  5. Single Parents My 6 yo DS tells me he doesn't want to live with me and only stay with his mom...(more) 2-18-2013 10:47pm (4 replies)
    My DS is on the Autism Spectrum, he has fairly mild issues. When I stop him from doing some of his behaviors, especially towards his little brother he gets really angry with me and starts crying for his mother and telling me how much he doesn't want to spend time with me. I sympathize and feel the same way at times around him. It's incredibly hard and I feel his mother probably handles him better than I do. Is this going to get better or am I just kidding myself?
