For me its important to be with my son in his early years, and then work when he's at school.  That was fine for our mothers and since girl-power it seems that your not valid unless you work.  .  Also my friends who have partners seem to pity my because my sons father doesn't want to know, that was his choice, but as my son and I have never know anything different we're fine.    Report
