Single parents in ED

Blimey, there is almost nothing on this topic on previous threads at all.


These are the best I could do.

Dulwichmum on a mother and baby group.

and err...dulwichmum talking about the same group on a different thread

Couldn't really find anything on the Southwark Council site specifically to single parents either I'm afraid.

I tried :(

Just a guess, but wouldn't surprise me if single parents have typically less free time to sit down and indulge in EDF chat. So they would be under-represented on this forum. Let's look at the evidence:


Cherry - registered 04/07 - number of posts 3, average 0.01 posts per day

Mockney Piers - registered 11/06 - number of posts 4,508, average 10 posts per day


And that, members of the jury, is the case for the prosecution.

Good point Muttley, maybe after a few days some more will have got round to catching up with the forum... we'll see.


In the meantime, hi Maxbabe! Peckham's got to count as it looks like it's just the two of us..

Whilst we sympathise and are very much on your side - unlike tories/many in the w/c and people who live in Kensington - we don't really want you living next door, be a good girl and move to SE15, with our full liberal support and best wishes obviously

I am single parent family, the family (two daughters) stay generally with there mother and I have the pleasure of their company to get their car fixed when it gives trouble.

Sadly I don't think I am the right age group for anyone to be interested 60+.

So this is a totally irrelevent post, and I wished I had gone to bed earlier.

Could swear in earlier posts you went "away" away for 2 years, were you married at the time? Or did you foster your kids out? not nit picking just curious, as a father myself get fed up with the one sided pictures a lot of single (particularly female) parents paint of absent fathers

I am very confused by some of the responses to this genuine post. Is it a joke that a single parent may be trying to find a local network of people in a similar situation?


Cherry, I know a number of local single parents but Muttley is probably right, many don't have time to sit down and respond to the forum.


Good luck.

Thanks EDmummy, your right I was just wondering if there was anyone locally in a similar situation to me, as despite knowing loads of parents round here I don't know any who are single. Looks like the forum isn't the best place to find them but then where is??


Hi Chav, with you on the wardrobe comment but annoyingly don't get the free babysitting!

So Maximay you say you are a Father yourself, but when discussing what to get at Xmas you said "Lucky he gets them anything, my kid's dad gets them bugger all!".


I think it is about time you declared your vested interest in slagging me off and stop hiding behind anonymity, unless that is you're scared incase instead of judging me, you yourself become the one 'in the dock'.

I have a feeling Maximay is in fact female, lied about having a child who died from an overdose, is intimately connected with my ex-husband and feels the need to have a go at me for her own sad reasons.


My ex-husband is part of my past and although we are civil to each other nowadays for the sake of the kids, Maximay seems to be unable to move on or accept there may have been some blame in the breakdown of our marriage to lay at his door as well as mine.

    • We ended up getting a large garden shed for our build, it did the job and kept it after to store the garden and sports stuff. If you need off site storage, most of the storage companies do introductory offers, such as £1 for first month and its generally cheaper to book this online to avoid the admin fee - check the small print as most charge a lock fee and compulsory insurance fees. Consider how often you'll need to access your items as the cost is generally higher for more accessible storage where you can visit as you please, such as Suregard and Big Yellow, and cheaper for the companies where you fill a storage container and they take it away to a remote storage location. Hope this helps

    • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Leon from Electrical Initiative Ltd did a fantastic job replacing our bathroom fan and light today. He is super responsive and easy to communicate with. He is professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. Leon took the time to explain what needed doing, worked efficiently, and left everything neat and tidy. It’s rare to find someone so committed to quality work and customer satisfaction – highly recommend Leon for any electrical needs!
    • True. But I hope you aren't saying that to try and erase the situation in Gaza? Where our government is actively contributing to the genocide by selling arms and contributing to intelligence missions (via Cyprus). As well as a complete failure to meaningfully condemn
