being a single parent

I have some friends that are single parents. and YES its not really easy to be one. You have to strive hard so that you can give your child what he/she wants. Even with a husband, you still have to strive hard for your family. It's not easy to be parent, however, its a wonderful feeling that you see your child and grew up. The feeling is priceless. All the hard work you do, it's all worth it.

I am a single parent. I bring up my daughter alone. My parents do not help me, nor my ex husband. It is really hard. In my country alone mothers do not get much help from the government so they are left alone and have to take care of themselves and their children on their own. Moreover, children from broken families do not have proper home conditions, less time spent with working mother, less money to enjoy pleasures and less joy in life...

from the word itself, being "single" is already hard..of course it is easier to do things with a little help from other people..but with my experience..my single mom was able to raise both me and my sister pretty well..she was able to send us to private schools and give us the things we've wanted..i believe that with proper mindset and determination you can always get what you want..it is hard but you will be able to get things done eventually if you are really focus on your goal..

I used to be a single parent... but got lucky to have someone who treated my child as his own. If raising a child is a difficult task for families with both mother and father around. You triple and maybe multiply more, the difficulty a single parent goes through. Not only the single parent have to fill the role of the parent who's not around. The single parent also have to deal with her inadequacies as a mother/father of the child. single parents must have done something wrong in the past... but if they are trying to raise their child to the best they can now... they still deserve that high degree of respect!
