Hi Blue
I am a single parent. My first daughter's father was a drug addict. I chose to do it on my own, it is the best desicion i have ever made.
He would not have been there for me or her, so why have the added stress of someone who you know is going to fail and hurt you and your child.
My daughters are my life, they have given my so much joy, the love i have for my children is immense.
You can if you choose, enjoy motherhood as i have without the added burden of caretaking an alcoholic.
Glad your here
