Uh, excuse me, but what is a "single mother"? I believe in the old days (before political correctness was enshrined by Liberals) that less-flattering terms were used to describe out-of-wedlock mothers.

Uh, excuse me, but the article refers to her ex-husband. Perhaps you should read it and we should ask where the hell he is?

"Perhaps you should read it and we should ask where the hell he is?"

Again, she is NOT a "single mother", she's a divorcee or divorced mother of three.

What's the problem with that term? Do we have to include un-wed mother's with the divorcee's and widows by coining the term "single mother", to ausuage their shame and guilt (the knocked-up un-wed mothers)?
