Is being a single parent preferable than having a disruptive partner?

Hi All,

I'm four months pregnant, my first at 37, a mistake but decided to have the baby.

My partner is dutch and the most unreliable SOB ever.

Without going into details, is there anyone out there that has decided to go it alone even though there is an offer (albeit unreliable) to stick together and work it through?

Also, any experience of claiming support from a partner outside the UK?

Hi

Just want to tell you how he is, is how he is he wont change , so if you want to spend years trying too good luck. You could always agree on him having contact with the child he see how he matures over the years and then consider staying together later. Hope this helps. believe me ive been there and its like hitting my head against a brick wall to get him to change. good luck.we are now apart and i have 2 children to him. he will never change took me 4 yrs to wake up and my energy levels where so low, what a waste of time, but i have 2 great kids whom have a future and are the best ever.
