A listener asked a question if I remember correctly how married friends can support their single parent friends, and I gave different ways that they can support.<br /><br />I'm not sure how my answer came off as my feeling entitled because that's certainly not me. If I don't even feel entitled to my own family's help, then far be it from me to feel entitled to other people's help. <br /><br />However IF anyone can help AND wants to help out, then please by all means do so. Everyone has problems as you rightly said and should only offer help that they are willing and able to give (without resentment).<br /><br />In the same vein, people should ask for help if they need it, I agree. And just because they ask doesn't mean that it will be offered. The same way I can't always help to watch my nieces and nephews, is the same way my girls won't always be able to help out in one way or another. It's life. Sometimes people can help, sometimes they can't, sometimes they just don't want to. C'est la vie.Berry Dakarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12228332437019976580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5924600384444388546.post-2792355069776902242020-10-29T21:50:02.521-04:002020-10-29T21:50:02.521-04:00I hope this doesn't come off the wrong way bec...I hope this doesn't come off the wrong way because it's coming from a good place. <br /><br />Please drop the entitlement attitude. You've been married before so you know married people have their own issues too. <br /><br />You can't go around expecting people/friends to do anything for you or putting pressure on people to do things for you. <br /><br />The idea that your married friends should know to offer help and give you time for a breather is sort of setting other people up for failure. I say other people because it may have worked for you but another person will not be so lucky if they walk around feeling entitled to this. <br /><br />People should be encouraged to ask for help. Having an ego and not wanting to ask for help is not the right mindset and that comes with consequences. The only person that is obligated to care for your child (emotionally and financially) is the other parent and they should be help accountable. <br /><br />Have you thought of going the child support route because you shouldn't have to carry the financial load alone. After-all you both gave birth to the child.
