  • Wow. Ur being selfish. The baby needs a father, without one there will be consequences for the baby. Put the baby first. Not urself

  • You are going to want a husband around when you have to pay bills, or buy anything, or get up with the baby 27 times a night, or discipline the kid when he gets older, or play with him, or take him camping or fishing. Daddies are very important. No daddy, no baby.

  • Wow, single parenthood is not an easy task, at least have the father around, u don't have to marry him.

  • You nay not want the father around but the kid will later. Don't be selfish. The kid wants and needs a father. Doing it alone is very hard. Even though I'm married my husband was hardly home. I felt like a single parent. It's toooo darn hard all by yourself.

  • Lol you won't want to be a single patent once you have a baby. Really it's for two people two share in. Babies are very fun and cute but are a ton of work and you will want someone there to help every now and then I'm sure. Plus a child should have a mother and father

  • It's okay if you want to be a single mom, as long as you have the financial means to do so.

  • Steal a baby from the maternity ward. Viola...... Baby without husband.

  • I wanted the same thing years back. My ex-boyfriends were offended, to say the least, (even though we were, what, fourteen/fifteen?)

    It's normal IMO. Wanting to uphold the maternal responsibility, but not up for dealing with marriage stress. Babies don't argue who makes dinner tonight, they don't leave their dirty laundry in random corners, and most of all, you don't have to worry if your baby might be "seeing someone else while his tired wife is at home" (post-natal mental insecurities).

    Don't act on it though. A baby deserves a father's attention, as much from the mother. The urge will pass sooner or later. :)

  • There are millions of single moms out there who do a great job. If you are responsible and know you can do it, do it! It's your uterus.
    I've always pictured myself as a single mom. I think it would be fun to raise a daughter on my own. But then I realize realistically that might backfire on me when they turn into teens.
    Do it. Providing a loving nurturing home by yourself is 1000% better than these clowns who have babies on accident and treat them like shit.

  • Yes, I think it is normal, sadly enough. I think that a child should have two parents if possible. A mother and a father. They need to have a role model for each kind of gender.

    Girls need to have a mother that she can identify with and a good father that makes her choose a good boyfriend.

    In the same way I think boys should have a father as a role model and a mother that helps him pick a good girlfriend.

    What about you get a boy as a single mother and he does not learn to threat girls well because he did not have a role model?

  • You know what I say as long as he or she does have a steady male infuence like an uncle her she see's regularly I think it is ok.
