It's not secret that single mums have a bad reputation. Let's just be honest here, we can cry all we want but that's the reality. It's the whole reason I created this blog, to escape the stigma that surrounds us every day. I can't take another assumption on my morals, my character and my integrity based upon my status as a single mother. Why should I? Why should you? The fact that we have successfully procreated and not ended up in marital bliss with a perfect husband does not reflect on our core personality. It just means we had a failed relationship. Which the majority of the population can relate to- correct? I see people's faces drop when I tell them. It's subtle but it's there.People may SAY the right thing but they are secretly glad it's not them in our situation. They secretly think that they would never be so stupid or reckless. They think they will have the fairytale, until it happens to them.
