Life as a single Dad vs Single Mom

Postby 1nemansquad » Thu Dec 20, 2012 9:27 am

Parenthood is hard work at the best of times, but being a young parent is one of the most difficult situations to be in, and a single young Dad with full custody? Its harder than anything you can ever do or imagine anyone doing but you know what else?

its the cooolest thing, the most fulfilling, grafifying, worthwhile, the most amazing thing you could ever live to do, there is nothing better.

I don't know any single mom's, I heard some amazing stories about them but I also seen or had known some single mom's and they weren't so great;

who makes a better parent? single moms or single dads?

I'm not a scientist or anything but I'm quite sure it depends on the person not their gender. :|

Wow so much has changed for you in just a couple of years. Congrats on the kid, mid qeyr qabo/qabto Ilaahey ha kaa dhigo, Amiin :up:


As for your question, girls need their dads more and boys need their mum more, imo.

Even though I prefer a cake, but sure why not, but only if you get burned baking it.

Mashallah. Having a dad around means he can be disciplined and have structure in his life. Hooyo lakin is that macmacaan and care, the stability of unconditional love that gives confidence throughout life. But then it takes a village so even if one parent is not there the uncles and aunts can step in :up:

I was raised by a single dad for parts of my life.. And my father was amazing aun.. He would even brush and braid my hair every morning before school.. :up:

If you're a single father May Allah make it easy for you.. Coz it is difficult.

There is nothing hard about raising a Kid whether Single dad or Mom. The hardest thing is to have Kids. Remember you have control on where he grows up and what he becomes. You have no control of whether you should get him first or not. Waxaad Tiraah alxamdulillaah allahii Cunugaan Isiiyay. Some folks like me would be thrilled to be in your position.

Sorry to hear this AUN to your dad he sounds like mine. Sis make sure you make lots of duas for him and pay charity on his behalf. I remember there was a Hadith were the prophet (saw) said a man will raise up on Yumul Qiyama and be one of the peoe of Jannah although he was supposed to be one of the people if hell and he asks how can this be and Allah tells him you left behind righteous kids who payed sadaqa on your behalf and made dua for you. May Allah give our parents Jannah :rose:
