There is a double standard in single parenting that is unfair to both male and female single parents. I am lucky enough not to be a single parent, but I can't help but recognize the double standard that exist. Whenever my partner is out and about with the children, and I'm not with the crew, people want to give him the gold medal for "Dad of the Year." Now, I'm not downplaying the fact that my children have a great father, what I am saying is, single mothers don't get same round of applause.
