    “I got divorced when my daughter was very young. So she’s kinda been my whole life since she was five. It’s just the two of us. I go to work, I come home, and she’s always there— maybe a little less now because she’s eighteen, but you know what I mean. She’s about to..."pic.twitter.com/MrYgLCVlkl

        This woman & I are living parallel lives, but my baby will be turning 10 on 8/20. DD is also my priority & I put her above all else. I too realize that one day it will just be me. I’m going to have to dig deep & be brave to rediscover me & this world. Sending all 💗 to this gal.

        Ditto. But my daughter is now 26 and I still put her first. Learn from my mistake ladies 18 is the right age to let go ...or you cripple and stunt each other.

        I should have been this person for my daughter and I was not. I was only an “ok” mother, which I now realize was a big mistake. My daughter has forgiven me but, I haven’t been able to forgive myself. Thank you for being a better woman.

        I think this is so normal of single moms. I always put my kids first. I have the job that allows me to be around, I don't travel or have hobbies. I feel like this is a season and I hope it will all pay off when they are grown.
