I never really thought about it, but I think she is. I don't think we'll ever find out on the show. @WeevilWobble's analysis makes sense. No one was surised when we found out Sam's dad left. Carly's personality doesn't point to a similar thing happening with her mom. Freddie's personality would normally say that his dad died, since Freddie seems to be pretty trusting. But since his mother is crazy, that throws the whole thing into doubt. Either he was driven off by Mrs. Benson being crazy and Freddie knew that his dad loved him or his dad died and Mrs. Benson went crazy. I do find it noteworthy that all the teenage main character (even Gibby)s are raised by a single parent/guardian. If Carly's mom is dead, which I think she is, that would mean Spencer was raised by a single parent as well for at least part of his life. Seeing all the main characters being raised by a single parent/guardian is pretty rare.
