In addition, the exisiting activities seem to be centered around children with at least one stay at home parent. We'd like this group to appeal to families where the parent (s) are …

Single parenting is a unique challenge... I am very fortunate to have supportive friends and family but would love to meet friends who are in a similar situation.

I hope we'll also keep in touch (vent, brag about our kids, ask for advice) via the message boards :) This group is a work in progress but I wanted to ge …

I decided to start this group because I love living in Kew Gardens and as a Mother I can always use support from friends.

Anyone looking to connect with other parents in the area should definitely join!

The Long Island Single Parents Meet-up Group is a great way for suburban single parents to meet, get together for socials, conversations, dining, support or just having a great time with our kids and new friends. Our group is also a way to help others in transition to get back their social lives. We'll have a wide range of activities to spend with our kids and friends. On that note, let's limit the membership to single parents ONLY.

This group is a great way for soccer loving parents to get involved in soccer with their kids. It's basically soccer lessons for both parent and child with a group game afterwards. Kids can challenge parents and vice versa. This is a great way to get active and enjoy playing soccer alongside of your kids instead of watching from the stands.

I am just an average Mom with a son who will be starting Kindergarden at the Islip Wing School in Sept of 2012. I decided to start this group with the hopes that the kids can get to know and socialize with their future classmates prior to starting.

The ultimate goal would be …
