Have your children when you're ready to give them your all -- preferably with father & mother equally involved.
I'm pro choice too. You can choose to close your legs or open them.

Fathers Day is a day for FATHERS. Not sperm donors.

So you stayed with a loser for several years. Doesn't say too much about you... Possibly you alienated them against him? naw... gotta be >

Those darned evil men.

Here is a comment from a guy today:

Now that Fathers Day is over, can we have some real talk about how women get over on us men. On Mothers Day, the theme is giving mom a day of rest, a spa day or weekend away from kids. On Fathers day, its about the kids spending time with Dad. And mom still gets a day or weekend of rest away from the kids. So basically... every day is mother's day. Im just saying. Thoughts?

What do you think of his comment?

Do you think single mothers deserve recognition on fathers day?
Nope. Father's day is not for angry and bitter single moms. Mothers already have their day.

Public announcements of bitterness and resentment toward the person you should love most in the world? Not much. Sounds like a divorce waiting to happen.

For the record, I do not feel this way about the absentee fathers.

Men who "donate" all around town and create multiple illegitimate children without taking financial, emotional and physical care of those children are scum.

However, women need to be smarter, take responsibility for their own bodies and make better decisions than to have a child with men like this considering that we (women) are the ones who ultimately end up having to take care of the child whether the father is in the picture or not.
