Life As A Single Dad
Is there a more challenging transition for a man than to become a new single dad with children at home? If there is, I can't imagine it. Whether you lose your spouse and the mother of your kids to death or because of a divorce and/or abandonment, adjusting to the new reality of things is a major and life changing task.
Most newly single dads I know struggle to know where to start. What should be first on my list, and how do I even begin tor get my arms around the rest? Having talked to a number of single dads who have successfully negotiated this transition i can tell you its not easy but its worth it.
You just have to be the mom and dad at the same time,be there for them,remember their anniversaries,play with them and love them the best way you can. They'll not remain kids for ever,they'll grow up before you know it and then you can rest and enjoy the benefits.
