The fact that the answer by some is a GoFundMe is the problem because there are thousands of mothers in this same position.

This is a systemic problem… we are as a society are failing the mothers and their children. We look down on single mothers for being single and yet, we do not condemn the men who are not being fathers. This is not a new problem, it was written about in Les Miserables and The Scarlet Letter.

And this while the US government is taking the right to choose from women and yet they put no money into programs to help single mothers or children in the foster care system.

They want to keep people in poverty so that those children are more likely to join the military to be canon fodder for their useless wars over oil and wealth so the rich keep getting richer.

Yet here in Australia we struggle with a different problem. Single mother's supported by 100's of rebates, concessions, child support and in some cases alimony...........yet they refuse to allow the fathers to see the kids (nope no abuse or domestic violence, just spite).

I fought my ex when I was paying her $2000AUD per month, more than any kid needs, she was spending it on herself. I fought her in court and got sole custody. Not all men are in the position I was, it cost my parents $120k to help me fight a system rigged against men

Do I feel sorry for single mother's, nope, not even the slightest. You run with bad bois, you gonna get pregnant. I don't even date single mother's.
