people from single parents households

[ItsPeople]

Do you think people from single parent households are harder to date and are more likely to become single parents themselves?

I know a couple girls that are constantly posting those “inspiring” memes with captions such as “stingy with my love” who are pushing 40 and are in/out of relationships.

Same girls want to have a family and kids “at some point”.

Then I have other girls that are from 2 parent households that have been in steady relationships, some got married mid 20s and have 3/4 kids by 35 with one partner, two at most. I rarely see them post that inspiring stuff.

Y’all notice the same thing

Depends on parents.

I know people from two parents homes who were raised by both and are still uninspiring, have no work ethic..ain't shyt..etc.

I know brehs and chicks raised by ma dukes and they have strong work ethic..morals..did well for themselves in life.


All that shyt is on the cover though...I wouldn't know all the rest if I ain't dating them so this is a weird question..

If you wanna diss brehs raised by single mothers then this ain't it

I've noticed a lot of people (men and women) choosing to stay single, from single or two parent households.

If anything, I see more two parent household people choose to stay in relationships longer that they are unhappy in, because it "looks good" to the public or they seen their parents stay in unhealthy relationships.

yeah way too many people remain in unhealthy relationships because of "expectations".

relationships shouldn't be used as props.

No.

Most black women and men are from single parent homes. I’d say most would like the opposite of what they had

 

[O.T.I.S.]

yes

People mimic their childhood

I’m from a single parent child hood and have a family and my brother and sister too.

Anecdotal, but that’s what you asked for

You guys gotta stop thinking everything is just a women thing.

Sometimes two parent households aren’t the wave either.

The question isn’t 2 parent versus single parent household. It’s about healthy versus unhealthy household.

I hate generalizations, but fatherless women

yes my evidence is anecdotal, I just wanted to see if anyone else noticed a pattern. Also seems like this could be filed under nature vs nurture

 

[ItsPeople]

yes

People mimic their childhood

Esp if they are surrounded by it and haven’t really been around anything different for any long periods of time. It’s all you’ll know.

It can be both good and bad.

 

[UpNext]

Absolutely. And they have far more unrealistic views on relationship on average.

Yes and it goes both ways, your kids tend to approach relationships differently when you're a 2 parent household I mean this in a positive way.

I think single parent and/or kids of divorced parents are quicker to let a relationship go than those that came from two parent households. For single those that had single parents, things like compromise and sharing can be difficult because they saw one person have it their way and they often emulate that in their own homes. Adults of divorced parents can have a concept of "things come to an end", so things like arguing may indicate shyts about to hit the fan because from their perspective, divorce came after parents arguing a lot.

At some point it is not beneficial to attempt and baseline your present relationship from the way your parent's operated. You only had view as a child and parents shield so much from their children. If everyone developed overall good relationship skills, like effective communication or healthy expression of emotions, it will be much easier to relate to one another, regardless of how your home was structured growing up.

Every Situation is different

I’ve been around women who are single moms with kids by bums and they came from 2 parent households and I seen some women who came from single households become wives and having families

However I do see a large number of women who all had bad relationships with men come from a single parent household where daddy wasn’t around, so they end up picking up bums or any random nikka just to have that protection and security they never had..

I’m always right that a woman came from a mother led home with no father when I meet her, because I hear a woman say I need a provider, protector and security in a man

But all in all each one is different
