Where are you all?

I am in Leicestershire, and have 2 boys aged 6 and 3.

I thought about this last night, and really think that some of the 'end of tether' situations could be made a little less scary if we knew there was someone near by who understands.

hi all, I am in London (SE) and would love to meet other single mums. Going through a nasty divorce too but I promise I can also talk about more pleasant things!!

Sadperson - been a lp for 5-ish years, DS was 1 when we split. I have to say I reckon me and my DS have had a far better life on our own. Its had its hard moments especially when he was little. But the bond you get from it just being the 2 of you is sooo special. Plus I'm so proud that I've done it all on my own.
