My wife has a job in the public school system. It absolutely makes her crazy how many women with one complaint or another call her office proclaiming “I am a single mother!” as if it were a badge of honor.
Exactly. I have taken several night classes, and usually the professor asks each student to introduce themselves. I can’t even count the number of times that women have stood up in class and the first words out of their mouths after telling every their name is, “I am a SINGLE MOTHER!” They say it like they are Medal of Honor recipients.
