Has anyone ever thought about living in a commune?

100% yes.
I’d trust my kids with other women over any man. Also just imagine how much easier it would be

What doctor, farmer, lawyer, is coming on the compound?

I've thought of this and seen other moms on other apps being it up and there was lots of interest.
I like the idea of a true community that helps eachother out. Pulls resources. Just wish more people actually came together or found those people.
Its hard enough just making friends 🧡 Moms say they want to connect but it seems like everyone text and no one actually connects and talk. I get we're all busy but if people don't take the time to connect and show up idk if bonds will really happen.

Yes!! I think about this frequently!! But finding people who can join is the difficult thing!! I have realized though that everyone who joins would have to sign an accountability contract cuz I want to make sure no narcissistic people join! Cuz that can be a downfall if not prepared for!

My MIL has never ever lived by herself. Came over to Aus as a refugee, single mama w one boy, and she’s always shared house w other single mamas or other couples who work FT and aren’t home during the day. When I met hubby he was in her 3 bed house, 1 room rented out and also the fully furnished livable garage w separate bathroom and kitchen - was rented out too. And that was after she bought her own house. Before that she’s always rented w others, in a share housing. It’s not new, you can still do it if you want. Some of my single mama friends after divorce either moved back home w their Mum or sister. That’s who looks after the sleeping kids while we duck out for girls nights. My own house here has 3 generations in it. MIL now lives w us but she seems miserable 😅 she’s used to chatting and sharing her life w others. We had to BEG her to sell up and come live w us I mean she’s 75. She didn’t want to. I know lots of Asians sharing house or living w siblings
