I owe you an apology. I was not paying attention to how I was wording things when I said my comment about 3 kids/3 fathers. I meant my annoyance in the sense of women who are just totally irresponsible, get pregnant out of marriage 3,4,5 times however many when they know better. The reason I don't necessarily think badly of 2 kids with 2 parents is that people make mistakes. Sometimes a first marriage doesn't work. Hell, my husband is the perfect example - he now has 3 kids with 2 different mothers. I think your situation is much different than the types of people I was venting about. I'm sorry if I didn't express myself better.

I respect you SO MUCH for getting out of the relationship with Jeb's father and I'm VERY impressed with your morals in that you're staying celebate until your divorce is final. I don't know that I could say that I would be that strong if I was dating someone I really liked.

I do not think single parenthood is "wrong" - in fact, I think that I am very conscious of not using that word. I just get very annoyed when I see people being irresponsible.

For you to get married again and have another child with a different father is not irresponsible in my opinion and I feel sad that you may deprive yourself future children because you are worried about how it will be perceived. From everything I have read from you, I think you're a fantastic mother.

And I have to say again - wow, the way this topic is being debated is impressive...
