If a woman isn’t looking to be supported by a man, that’s great, it’s just not common for a single mom to be financially independent enough for that to not be on her mind (I won’t get into reliance on government subsidies). The fact is raising a child is expensive, and if the relationship progresses to the point of you living together, it will be impossible to not end up supporting her child. I haven’t met too many doctor/lawyer single mothers, most who I have dealt with are somewhere in between adult student and social worker/government worker.We used to call these gals Husband Hunters, looking for financial security and a comfortable life. If she has a deadbeat X she is likely in this category and you could be risking a lot especially if she lives in your home for a number of years, she could walk with a portion of it. On the other hand there are independent single mothers who have even refused child support from an X and go it alone successfully raising good kids. There are those in the middle who have made a good choice but it didn’t work out but they have a cordial relationship with their X who pays child support. She is looking for a stable relationship, this could all work out but if you are not bringing positive energy to the relationship nothing will work.
As for being treated like livestock, isn’t that what being a man is in general in Canada? Being livestock for taxation and massive wealth transfers to women through the state? Something like 99% of households below the poverty line are single parent households, and out of those almost all are single mother led. So you could argue that you could virtually eliminate poverty if there were no single mothers. But that’s not my point, my point is that there is already a massive wealth transfer from men to single mothers through taxation via the state. This needs to be acknowledged.
