So, as a product of a single parent household, I was wondering if I have peers among the MU community

Single parent, my mother. I don't think i grew up too bad. ^^; I think the parent's lifestyle and occupation plays a major role, as well as when you parent became divorced or single.

My mother's a nurse, w/ 3 children, and taught her eldest child (thats me) about life and health thru her nursing articles.... such as depression, anxiety, mood swings... all that... never told me directly about.. (lol) but always told me to read them. 🙂

Double parent home, thankfully.

Double parent til I was 7 then death took one away...

Hard to say.
My mom and dad divorced when I was 7,
my mom remarried when I was 10 and my dad
got a new woman when I was 12.
I have lived in a single parent home
for some time.

mama and papa are around ^^

Grew up in a single parent home - my parents divorced when I was around a year old & I always lived with my mom (just visited my dad). My mom married my step-dad when I was in college; I like him a lot but have never lived in the same home as he & my mom. I don't think I'm any the worse for it; our family's a bit tangled & odd by most standards but it's normal for me. 😃

Am now a single parent - my boys are 12 now plus I have a foster baby who's 9 months old. Judging by what I hear from other parents, there are things about single parenting that are harder and other things that are easier than non-single parenting. It's never been a big deal to me, just the way things turned out for us.

grew up in a single parent home. Parents divorced when I was five and I kept having to switch between the two more times than I like. But oh well, thats fuel for my resolve to not let any child of mine grow up the same.

Thanks, for everyones help, that should be enough site. 😀 Remember manga is a joy to be shared with everyone.

I've never lived in a single parent home, my parents were always married and living together. I don't intend to be part a single parent in the future (adoption for those of you who aren't thinking of it). Ya, old fashioned maybe, but I always loved my family.

Yup, I was living with just my mum at about... 12-13. And glad too, can't stand my dad. x3

I'd love a nice cuddly dad, but I'm pretty happy as things are.

No, my parents are still together, thankfully. My mother has sustained a lot of psychological damage from her childhood (Her father sexually abused her). Sometimes she goes into these fits where only dad can calm her down. Since my dad is laid-back and my mom is strict, they balance each other. xD

If you have a dream, don't wait. Act.

What gets me is that it's almost a 50/50 split in the poll. I guess that I'll have to accept that for some reason, 50% of marriages end in divorce nowadays.

But then, the other 50% end with death if you look at the other side.
