  1. It's even harder to be a single parent. After my husband told me that he wanted to file for divorce in Georgia, I was shocked! Because I was counting on his support, and our child didn't even stop him. Now we have completed the divorce proceedings, we live separately. But he is not at all interested in how our baby is doing. This makes me very sad, because the child is used to the fact that dad is always there, and now he cries when he talks about him, and doesn't understand why dad left. Of course, our son is sure that he was the cause, that dad left. It hurts me to look at this, I try to give my child all my attention and love. As much as possible. Thanks for publishing, I think parenting books will come in handy one way or another.
