You Can't Accept That I'm A Single Mum, Yet I Should Accept That You're A Single Dad?
<p>Some people hold different rules for themselves than they do for others. It’s a bit like a one-way street. They expect understanding and acceptance for their own choices, but they’re not willing to offer the same in return.</p><p><br/></p><p>Imagine a single dad. He wants to be seen for who he is—a loving parent, a hard worker, a good person. He hopes others will look past his family situation and see his character. When he meets a single mum, he might be quick to judge her. He might see her as someone who made bad choices, or as a burden, without ever stopping to think that her story could be just as complex and full of love as his own.</p><p><br/></p><p>This isn’t fair. If we want others to respect our path in life, we have to be willing to respect theirs. The world is full of different people with different stories. We can’t ask for acceptance for ourselves while denying it to others. Real fairness means treating everyone with the same kindness and open-mindedness we want for ourselves.</p>
