The late 20s, or early 30s, single mom, who had been sleeping with a frienemy...well, she has a boyfriend - they had recently gotten back from a tropical vaca. Anyway, she is also a homeowner, AND

has recently gotten a nice promotion.  Her former job paid well.  Well, she is being paid even better :)  A resounding har-d-har-har, to the ever-miffed red-pills - and to their female toadies - out there.  And that's only the half of it.  Granted, maybe the non-anglo single mom comes from money - or maybe, one or both of her parents taught her, from early childhood, how to make smart financial choices.   Ya know, there's more than enough people, who do come from money, but they're always broke.

Anyway, it was like three years ago, she was saying of being tired of apartment living - of not being allowed, per the landlord's rules, to grill even a few hotdogs.  She bought a house, and she said something about using some of her savings.  It was what she didn't say, about the quite sizable down payment - that she had evidently, kept some funds in savings...ya know, unexpected expenses.  Meanwhile, her child, at the time was, maybe, in first or second grade.

You can talk child support, but that only covers some - if that - of the child's basic needs.  If the father doesn't earn much, or takes off...  The child-care tax-credit and deduction reimburses about, approaching half the daycare expense.  Mom has to come up with the other half - and she better not be late, even by ten minutes, in picking up her child, because, boy-howdy, they charge extra.  Going rate for daycare runs about $800 monthly.  

In short: the same old story -  mom chose to separate from dad, because... well, when ya end up having to be both mom, dad, housekeeper AND financial provider...what's the point in continuing to keep lugging about some 150 stress pounds!  By the way, the single mom is slender - you betcha!  Obesity is a real strain upon one's pocketbook.

Granted, sex (of any kind) outside of marriage is sin - and a really bad one at that.  But that's how things are these days.  Hmmph, Lord has alot a nerve, don't He...horning in on people's sex life :/
