This is my second maybe third post about being a single mom trying to get the last few credits she needs to graduate undergrad. I never get replies and I’m feeling very alone. My dad keeps asking when I plan on going back and to do my research. I have but he thinks I’m pushing it back and I am because I’m terrified of going back and wondering where or who I’ll have my daughter go to. I know who she won’t be going to but he says that he understands I’m with her all hours of the day but in his words, “there are a lot of single moms out there getting their degree.” Respectfully I don’t care about those other single mothers because I am me and they are them. My daughter’s father has even brought it a few times asking have I been thinking about it and if I even plan to go back. It’s none of his damn business. When it gets to the point of our child being involved then I’ll clue him in. I truly feel like I don’t have anyone to talk to about the severe anxiety I have being her primary parent. She’s never been to daycare or stayed with anyone besides her dad for the most a week but she lives with me. No one is validating these emotions. Everyone is just so focused on pushing me back into school.
Please anyone out there still trying to get their degree I really need you to respond. I’m starting to think this app really isn’t helpful at all when no one responds.
