Myths about (young) single mothers:

We're all broke - I have a great job, thank you very much.

We're all looking for someone to be our kid's father - I hate this one. My son has a great dad and I'm not looking to attempt to replace him.

Single parent families are broken homes - This couldn't be further from the truth. Between my family and my ex's, there's just too much love for anything to be broken.

We're all on welfare - Well, if you have to be on welfare in this fucking economy where 11% of houses are empty (thanks a lot, housing crash) then more power to you. Thankfully, this isn't true for my family.

We're super easy or reeeeally prude - We are however we were going to be before we became mommies.

We're super moms - This is entirely true; believe every word of it.

Now go kiss your mother.
