I believe a kid should grow up in a functional family with a mom and dad, sure you can do it on your own, but just because you can doesn't make it a good idea.....But I respect your views, and I hope everything goes well.

Are you serious?
Imo its better to bring a baby up as a good single parent than one in an unhappy relationship. A child doesnt need a mum and dad it needs a loving caring parent and family and friends.
I was a single mum to my 1st for 2yrs 9mths till i met DH and he was a perfectly healthy happy little boys and tbh while being a single parent might be hard to some i didnt think so tbh i dont see it much different now being married and having kids than when i had DS1. Best thing i ever did was get away from his bio father he was a complete waste of space and loved the drink no way would DS1 of been better off if we stayed together actually if we did stay together he would of been one very unhappy little boy.
