If you came into some money/won the lottery, would you be a single parent?

I think I would.

I own my own money, have a degree and a career but it’s unlikely I’d easily survive on my own wage.
Gradually drifted apart from Dh, we get on sometimes, but tend to live sort of together, yet apart. I see friends a fair bit and take Dd, 4 on lots of play dates, we do family bits and are *Ok. I honestly sometimes think it might be easier alone, if you had lots of money and family support (I live away from mine but could move back if had more money)
I have a few wealthy friends who raise their children mainly alone and they’re very happy and have a fantastic bond with their Dds
I don’t know, maybe I’m living in a fantasy thinking that

He must be a shitty husband and father if your first response to money in the back would be to up and take the kids away from him so he can't see them very often.

I wouldn't leave DH if I got rich, but I'd hope if we split for a reason I'd still want the kids to have a close bond with them. If my first instinct is to move them away, I think I should be reconsidering the relationship anyway

@SleepingStandingUp Did I actually say that?

We're you not saying you'd move back to your family if you came int other money? That's what I read it as but I apologise if I interpreted it incorrectly

Yes l am already a lone parent of many years, poor financially but rich in other ways. Having a man around now would be surplus to requirements !!
