How difficult is it to be a single parent? (Soon to be one)

What would you consider to be a work wife/husband, and do you feel like they are okay to have?

Silly question but, how did you make close friends when you first moved to Miami? Feeling like a fish out of water, from Texas.

Any sober/ non-drinkers here? I’ve struggled to find new groups of friends since i quit drinking. Any advice on groups, etc would be appreciated!

HALP. Just discovered a bracelet my ex gave me. We were together for a year, five years ago. I think I remember it being her grandma’s or of some significance. Things did not end well. Is it the better move to donate it and move on, or offer her the chance to ship it back? I do not want drama or to restart anything, just to be kind.

My mother is a countryside business owner that thinks you can run a business just by working hard, and she is overworking herself.

How can I get through her the importance of decent managing? She doesn't even make her cash flow, has no idea from where money comes and where it goes.

Do you think using “him/her” for “he/she” (ex: “her is playing” “him not here yet”) is something that kids usually grow out of? Or does it need direct intervention? I have 2 students who exhibit this error, who otherwise should be dismissed. Normally I’d just keep them on and work on it alongside other goals, but they don’t have any other goals, and with COVID, and my upcoming maternity leave in March, a more compact caseload would be advantageous.

Does Deloitte still offer full benefits from first day of employment, including maternity leave?

Looking for some perspective: we just got a brand new $2,000 glass top 78" dining table. I asked my husband to please use a table cloth when he uses that table for d&d with his friends to avoid scratches and the loud dice on the table. He got upset that I "don't let him enjoy our stuff," that I "hate the sound of him having fun," and he says I am being unreasonable. From my perspective, I just want to preserve this expensive piece of furniture that we both love. Am I being unreasonable?

After 4+ weeks of quarantine, wife says I use the word "caveat" way too many times at work.

My two young toddlers are home from daycare for the next 1.5 weeks for the holidays, and I have off work to watch them.

I love my kids so much, but how do SAHMs do this every day? I’m so drained already, and I have no patience left…

What are some good child care options for single parents? Have a toddler that is in preschool, but need to think about child care after school. Currently have my parents helping out with the child care, but they are not a long-term solution. Don’t know what my options are… especially when I have to travel in the future. Thinking about au pair as it seems like a cost effective solution, but wondering what other options are?
