So I'm a 24/7 single father, and my son says dad i want to go to muffins for moms. Its a thing at school where the PTA or whatever it's called these days gives free muffins for students and their mothers.
There were moms at donuts for dads, so should I take my son?

Mind you I'm one of VERY few single parents in my son's school.

not sure which is harder for him going or not going.

dwithers,I think you should take your son, He may not have a mother but it sounds to me like he has one hell of a father, I would not care what anyone thinks, your son is more important than anyones opion, to bad there arent more men like you out there. Moby from Omaha NE.

I agree with Moby those are memories that will last for ever in your memories and Im sure the moms will accept u with open arms!!! Mike from Lincoln

We went and it would have been ok if it wasnt for some stupid lady making comments. But I think my son still appreciated it. And you guys are right, it is a memory that we already look back and laugh about.

congrats!!! dont let 1 or 2 niaeve people ruin your good time as long as u and your son enjoyed it, its all good!!!

i went through al that and now my sons are 18 and 23. they still want me to do things with them. if i had to do it again i would not even think about going or not we just go. and the next time you go if someone gives you a hard time let other people know they will put a stop to it. she is probely a trouble maker anyhow. i think it's great you take the time to show your kids you love them.

Sometimes you have to put up with snide comments from people when you do something for your child. Doing a great thing for your child is what counts.

In today's world, with so many single mothers and fathers, I think they ought to stop these gender specific parent child events. Well, not stop them, just stop making them father or mother specific. When I was young, the mom's didn't take their daughters to Daughter and Dad dinners and my friends without a dad in the picture always felt left out and hurt.

Make your son happy and feel good about himself and that is all that counts. Helping a child grow up confident and happy and into a great person.

Fantastic that you went....kudos. Teresa

I went through three rounds of custudy to get my son. But my son is liveing proof that if you love and respect your child they will always bring it back to you, even if the other parent can't or won't bring it back. You can't go wrong being there for your child no matter how hard, embarressing, or frustrating it may be. Believe me your child will remember.
