Some don’t want their kids around it
Some people don’t want their children to hang out in single-parent homes. It’s very judgmental, but it does happen. They can fear that their kid will pick up unhealthy ideas about marriage and family life. They might fear that you alone cannot properly supervise their kid, and you need a partner there to do it. If you had some friendships that existed primarily because your kids played together, these can go away after divorce. Once your home is no longer the “picture perfect” image of a family house, some parents might cancel those weekly playdates. This is one way you might discover that friendship relied on your being married.
