It is true that some husband do cheat but it doesn't mean that every husband or every man do this cheating. It is always good to have an intact family,but some were not fortunate to have a good and healthy family. But still it doesn't mean that,it is better to be a single mom than having a family of our own. Just take the risk and do your very best to have a good family and when things went wrong on the way,give your best to resolve any problem that may arise. Have a good day always

I think many would prefer to be a single mom - at least most of the women i knew thinks that they would rather be single moms, they have thought of having kids, whether adopted or their own and they have not basically thought of a possiblity of a life time partner. I guess it is a given knowledge nowadays that guys do have a tendency not to take things seriously and that there is a possibility that they could be left alone in their lives eventually so they do not expect to have a family - that is complete.

At times, I also think that what good is it to have a husband if only in the end he will cheat on me and leave me for other woman? However, if we keep on thinking that way, we will lose our desire to start our own family. And I guess, having a family is what will make someone's life complete. And a family consists of a father, a mother and a child. There are many single moms out there who can raise their kids in a good way even without the kid's father. However, I still think that life will be better to have someone to share the responsibility and joy of raising a child. So it will be better to have a family.

ideally.., starting a family is good.., someone can share with you in raising and nurturing your children and of course the finances too.., and it will be a good environment for your child to grow in a complete family setting.. but i understand where your coming from.., with men nowadays.., cheating on their wives.., we can't help but feel threatened too., i used to think the same way as you do.., to be a single mom wherein i don't have to be hassled of marital issues and i will only have to attend to my child's need and my own.., it can be an option too.., if you consider yourself alone.., it is better to be a single mom but if you think of how this would affect your child.., it' better to have a family..=)
