In her whole life Mom never earned more than five or six dollars a week. Being without a husband, it was hard for her to find any place at all for us to live.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My mom did not have money. She was a single mom, on and off in periods between marriages. My husband, however, grew up on a wonderful farm in Tuscany, in Florence, and his family was so entertaining in terms of growing their own food and using the fruit of their land. We have very, very different experiences.
My wife is the kind of girl who will not go anywhere without her mother, and her mother will go anywhere.
My mother was a public school teacher in Virginia, and we didn't have any money, we just survived on happiness, on being a happy family.
My mom lived with me until I started making enough money to support myself. I was asking her to leave the entire time. I'd been ready to move out since I was, like, 14.
A lot of mothers want to be with their children. They can't afford it for this reason or that reason.
I had time with my mother, but I really lived with my father. One time he gave all his salary so I could travel to a training camp. He couldn't pay the rent, but he did that.
My mother always said don't marry for money, divorce for money.
I'm raised by a single mom and didn't have pops around for the most part of my life. And she, by any means necessary, gave me the best opportunities that she knew how to give me.
I feel awful for women who are trying to raise kids on their own, with zero income and no fathers present - that's single motherhood.
My mother was a very wonderful woman. When she and my dad divorced, she moved to California and worked two jobs in the cannery at night and as a waitress during the day. But she saved enough money to establish a restaurant.
