The single mom part is just heard way to often these days. Dunno why couples part company so easy, like it doesn't matter that ''they'' brought kids in to this world and have an obligation to make things work. My mom left dad and I went back and forth state to state. Made myself a promise that I'd never put my own kids though anything of that nature and I lived up to it. Wasn't always easy though.
