Single Dads Support Group

Can I ask what it is you are looking for advice on? I'm not entirely sure what it is you are after.

Sorry to learn of your loss.
If you state your question to seek advice, someone may not be in the same situation, but, if it has to do with raising a child as a single father, I'm sure someone here would be able to offer you the advice you're seeking.
Now, if it's more in line to how to deal with the child's questions about their mother's passing, perhaps a family counselor would be best in order there.

That “something” you’re looking for is inside you! It’s always been there! When someone has been in, and has been our lives, and we lose them, we feel that we’ve lost little of ourselves, but that same person that they fell in love is still inside of you. Find it, and you will find your smile and joy again.

You raise a valid point regarding this group. Single dads need not be products of a failed marriage. The common thread here is, or should be, "Are corn chips really part of a complete breakfast for a four-year old?"

Historically, the care and feeding of children fall to mom, and our job is to fund the enterprise and drop by for dinner every now and then. Maybe this is how things rolled in your house. In a good marriage, this works pretty well.

Most of us can relate to you waking up one day and realizing that breakfast is now all on you. Ditto lunch and dinner. Maybe you couldn't find which cabinet hiding the cereal on that first morning, hence the Fritos.

Regardless of the circumstances that made us single dads, we do have challenges in common. This group does tend to focus on our particular circumstances a bit, but that's mostly because we've had to fight a battle to be fathers to our own children. Nevertheless, please feel welcome to post any question or comment regarding your current struggles. I think many of us would be happy to focus less on our individual wars, and more on the reasons for which we fight them.
