singleparents - Profile (original) (raw)
Parenting is such a tough job, and it's even tougher to do on your own. This is a community where other single parents can find help, support, or someone who understands them. We can help each other out, give advice, or just share isn't he/she-the-cutest-thing stories. And, of course, I expect there will be the occasional rant and rave about the child's other parent! It doesn't matter if you are a single mom or a single dad, all are welcome here!
The rules are simple:
*No hitting, kicking, biting, flaming, or name-calling.
* Different people have different parenting styles. You are allowed to disagree with each other. You are not allowed to start flame wars.
*Pictures of the kids are welcome! If there are more than 2, or if they are large, please lj-cut. Some folks are still on dial-up!
*Occasional off-topics posts aren't usually a problem. However, please try to keep the quiz results in your own journal.
*No community promos. That just gets irritating.
*No links to your eBay auctions or ads for items for sale.
*Please don't use the "screen comments" feature on your posts. This is a community, a place for sharing.
*Please don't colour your font. This can make it really hard to read your post if it fades into the background of our friends pages.
I will occasionally delete a post that violates any of the above rules. It's not personal.
