Hinesh Chauhan walks through what solo parenting actually costs after divorce: lost income, no backup when your kid gets sick at the beach, fewer big trips. He's not saying don't leave, just think hard about what you're signing up for.
So you find yourself at the beach, which is fine. It's summer, hot day, soft sand, bit of waves, Your kids are excited, and you're having a good time. Then the Mexican food you had for supper last night isn't having a good time, and you're panicked. Let's get started. Hi, I'm Hannesh Chohan. Welcome to Decent Divorced Dads. Today we're going to be talking about solo parenting adventures. Let's get started. Okay, so you're married. You've got disposable income. You spend March breaks together in Mexico. You spend summer vacations overseas. Different locations. Life's good. Now you're a single dad. That disposable income is gone. Your opportunities to have big adventures is gone. So you find yourself on a camping trip nearby in the summertime because really, that's all you can afford. You want to take your kids to that go kart track, but that's $150 to $200 adventure that you just can't do. So you find yourself at the beach, which is fine. It's summer, hot day, soft sand, bit of waves, Your kids are excited and you're having a good time. Then the Mexican food he had for supper last night isn't having a good time, and you're panicked. There's no lifeguard on duty. You've no one to turn to, maybe that family next to you. So you ask them to keep an eye on your kids, and you sprint to the bathroom. On your way there, you start thinking of, who are these people? You think of what could happen to your kids. You get to the point where you're now dealing with that Mexican food, and it's taking a lot of time. As these things do, these thoughts just get worse. The panic's there. The. The possibilities are endless, and it is very scary. I have lived. This may be. Not have. Might not have been Mexican food. Maybe it was. Doesn't matter. It's not a fun experience. It's. It's. It's stressful. I came back in the end. It worked out. But this is not an isolated incident. There's going to be more of these. And this is what I want you to consider. If you're heading toward separation or divorce, I want you to understand what that full impact is and what your new or alternate reality could look like so that you may consider or fight to work through what you're facing right now, make decisions with integrity, and really consider your choices for street food.
