Being a single mom, i have to say, its not as hard as i thought it would be. i love my kids with every fiber of my being. Im sure thats what makes caring for them feel so easy for me. i have my hard days and my low moments. but the thing that makes this experience so hard is their father. He seems to be under the impression that seeing them once a month ( or less) is more than enough to give our kiddos a chance to know him. While he may never physically be there for them, he is on the phone to me nearly every day, trying to dish out advice, dictate rules and essentially control a situation that he has shown no interest in participating in. When i point out that he is absolutely not in charge of the way i raise my kids he has all but abandoned, its instant threats of lawyers and courts.

Sometimes, he makes me want to rip my hair out is frustration, but i usually smile and agree, then do what i think is best once im off the phone. my real concern is how this will affect my kids when they figures out exactly what is going on. Eventually something has got to give. I'd just like to protect my precious from it as long as possible.
