Am I a single mom?

Question

Here's the story. Im in the process of a divorce, the ex moved out over a year ago and does not pay child support, sees his kids for a few hours on Saturdays while I'm working, doesn't call them, refuses to take them to the doctor etc.. I do everything on my own and he refuses to be any more involved. He calls spending time with our kids babysitting. Im working my ass off to raise these kids on my own. He and his gf say I'm not a single mom and tell me to grow up. Like? Lmao what 😳 i mean call me crazy but..

Answer

What? Obviously you are. My ex is very involved and has the kids 50% of the time and both of us still consider me a single mother and him a single father. Lol

Answer

They both sound like soggy ass pieces of cat shit. How dumb do u have to fuckin be to not realize that a mother with no partner whatsoever is considered a single mom?!

Answer

If he doesnt have his kids 50% of the time and he doesnt pay child support.... then yes you are. And I most certainly would put him on child support and spousal support because obviously he not pulling his weight. There are 7 days in a week and 24 hours in a day and he sees his kids maybe 2-8 hours. No you a single mom. 
      Ask him if he wants the roles to reverse..... and he take h the kids and u pop ip with mcdonalds on a saturday for a few hours🤷🏽‍♀️🤔🤐🥱

Answer

Even if you were in good terms with your ex..and he was paying child support..you're still raising your child in your home alone. Therefore yeah you are a single mom

Answer

To me. I wouldnt consider a co parenting relationship to be a "single mom or single dad" sorry, but you have the financial help, you have time to rest.
I have zero financial help. I pay for a babysitter so I can work. I fully support my son and pay for him on my own + living expenses. 
If you do not have help from the father = you are a single mom
Co parenting = your just single but help from the father. 
If it bothers you, put him on child support

Answer

Why isnt he paying for them?

Answer

I’ve always said if your child’s father is active in your child’s life, you are a single woman, not a single mother. That’s just my personal opinion. 
Although from the sound of it, yours doesn’t sound very active. I mean in the sense of, gets your child, pays child support, etc.

Answer

Me ex does the same thing. Doesn’t pay his required child support, sees his son for 7 hours every month, and rarely checks on him but still says that we are co- parents and this is 50/50 🙄 they are delusional.

Answer

Get him on child support and do all that through the court. You are a single mom imo

Answer

Who cares what they think? Put that loser on child support ASAP.
