I noticed that part, but I also noticed that it was the only mention you made to the single dads. Then the rest of the post was about the mum’s getting a raw deal and the negligent fathers and/or blokes who try to take advantage when in actual fact it can and does happen the other way around.
Did you understand that pet?
Wasp’s ok John. :wink:
The worst parents in my experience first hand are those going through a split.
You would not believe the unfounded allegations some Mothers actually make up to spite the Fathers :twisted:
These all have to be investigated and its a waste of time and puts the poor kids through hell.
If anyone on here is going through a split, or does in the future, try and do it amicablly.
Dont use your beloved children as pawns in your spat. :twisted:
They are the ones who get hurt, believe me.
Agree to an extent sharon, but the one’s I really hate are the ones who report their kids as ‘missing’ when in actual fact, they mean ‘We know where he is, he just doesn’t want to come home for his dinner. Could you go and get him cos I’m watching Emmerdale’ That infuriates me.

bad parenting naturally comes from people who are either single parents, teenage mums, unmarried parents and gays.
Children need role models and they need standards setting in what better way could this be achieved other than be an offspring of a decent married couple.

You are joking of course, please tell me your joking :lol:
For the record…that is not me nor my opinion Cas. I think you know me better than to churn out that garbage.

Can I toss my two pennywoth in??
I believe that the most important thing for any child is to have a safe and secure home where they are cared for and loved by BOTH their mother AND their father.
It is perhaps unfortunate that the concept in people’s minds of parents who choose NOT to marry and then have children together (i.e. after they marry) is one of instabiltiy. The implication is that one or other parent can leave the relationship with minimum fuss and bother and go off to do their own thing – irrespective of the child’s needs for loving parents.
Leaving aside the religious connotations involved in the act of ”Holy Matrimony” it is a committment made by two people to live together PERMANENTLY as husband and wife.
I believe that this publicly stated committment to one another is what creates a stable home and one in which children can feel loved and wanted.

in an ideal world maybe PB.
i have been married 31 years and have seen all sides.my daughter isnt married but has been with her partner for 10years. my son was a single parent…my youngest son lives with his girlfriend and her 2 children although they have regular contact with their real dad.
at the end of the day as long as children are loved and happy thats all that matters.Yes I can relate to that PATS. But the question posed by the originator of this thread was words to the effect of “Do single parent’s make bad parents?” Well clearly they don’t just because they are single.
It can only be a generalisation can’t it? For every single (or unmarried) parent there are going to be a complete mixture of the good, the bad & the ugly. Precisely the same must apply to married ones too.
I guess that, as a generalisation only, if a couple are prepared to go to all the fuss, bother and expense in order to get married, it implies that their relationship is perhaps regarded by them as being more permanent than if they just decide to live together and leave it at that.
