The Perks of Being The Only Parent

Perks? Yes! You read it right. Being the only parent is not all about problems, expenses, stress, etc... Here are some of the perks:
1. My child, my rules (just me)
2. No need to seek permission to do what I want to do
3. I only need to take care of my child and that's it
4. Waking up a little late on weekends is love (because you don't need to wake up to fix breakfast for another person)
5. No chumming up with the in-laws
6. No excuse needed when going home late.
7. Compromising on wants, needs, and schedules is a thing of the past.
8. You can wear anything you like!

See? I told you. The perks more than make up for the disadvantages!

Carpe Diem!


Much love,

Calm down folks. We will not be talking about me here. This is for solo moms with daughters. How do you deal with it? Well, I have experienced it and my decision was questioned BUT I think I had the last laugh. You see, it is inevitable that our daughters will be courted. However, you have to be firm when you set the rules I believe that 15 is too young so 35 is the right age. LOL! I am just joking. Us parents should decide early on the age our daughters can be courted. Then let your daughter know and be firm about it. There may be bumps along the way but I am pretty sure that you can decide what's best for her.

Much love,
