Parenting on my own !!!

[noreenc]

As I have mentioned I got separated over a year ago and so find myself parenting primarily on my own. My ex does help out but its over the odd weekend - he is not around on a day to day basis and anyway he is in a new relationship. And while I love being a mother - sometimes it can be very lonely making all of the decisions myself - at times I would just love to hand it over ! Does anyone else feel like that ??

I can't say i am in that position Noreen but my best friend is and so I see regularly how she tries to cope each day - which isn't easy. But she seems to have got in touch with a local support group and she loves it. They meet up a few times a month and are often on the phone to each other. So that might be a suggestion for you.
