Pround To Be A Single (but not single) Mom
For many years in the past, I have lived the reality of being a single mom. Being a single mom consists of so much more than just putting a roof over your child's head, making sure there is food on the table and clothes on their backs. It is also made up of having the ability balance discipline and love, punishments and praises, and, influence and guidance. As a single mom of a boy, this was not easy. I had to be the strong one when it came to discipline and the soft one when he was hurting. We all know that there is no guide to being a perfect parent. No matter how many books you read, or how many counseling sessions or parenting classes you take, all children are unique, one can't be predicted. Oh, and then there is that ever judging society. I don't care what any human says, society is very judgemental of single parents. You never fit-in quite like those mom's with the big houses, nice cars and especially the "I Have All The Time In The World" mom'...
