Oh I’m not looking forward to this conversation. Ultimately though, the joy I feel today as a solo mum could not have been achieved with my ex partner

Yea I’m not looking forward to it either but we owe it to them to be as honest as possible…. And I feel the same as you, having that other person in my son’s life would def be more detrimental to my son than anything

All great words of advice! It's one of the hardest parts of raising a child solo. My sons father was MIA and has recently resurfaced. It's nice that he's in his life but always a scary feeling bc he could fade back out at any moment.

Yes the back and forth sometimes can be more detrimental than a fully absent parent. Just continue to communicate with your boys and allow God to move in them…
