Book excerpt: No child wants to grow up with only one parent. And under normal circumstances, an adult wants to share parenting with their partner, to better support and educate their child and enjoy family life. Making the right choices for ourselves will have a great impact on our health, happiness and overall life experience. Improving low self-esteem can support us in many situations in life, and in particular the one of wisely choosing our partner to create a family. Bringing up a child in today's society is a challenge, as we're faced with twisted values and the normalization of unhealthy role models when it comes to fashion and beauty standards, the music industry, toys and electronic gadgets for children. Single parent statistics are very high and in many countries as many as half of all marriages end in divorce after a few years. The struggle, heartache and complexity of single parenthood is well worth a global effort. By buying the book, you contribute to The Last Single Mom Fund - supporting single mothers!

Book excerpt: Explore the real-life triumphs and tragedies of single-parent mothers! Unbroken Homes is a “story quilt” of personal narratives constructed from in-depth, case study interviews of five single-parent mothers. The book chronicles their journeys as mothers, daughters, and women, in relationships and in solitude, displaying their stories in their own words like the squares of a multicolored quilt. Unbroken Homes breaks through the stigma associated with “broken homes” and provides a new perspective on the reorganization of American families. Unbroken Homes encourages you to rethink some damaging stereotypical assumptions about children from single-mother headed homes. Drawing information from family research, counseling, and a cross-section of social sciences, this book is pertinent to any professional who works with single parents or their children. Unbroken Homes does not deal with what is “typical” in the single-parenting experience, nor does it give advice or proselytize. Rather, its purpose is to discover the meaning that single-parent mothers bring to their own lives, helping you to understand the dynamics of single-parent families from a uniquely personal perspective. In Unbroken Homes you will witness the ways that these women: experience the ill effects of gender role socialization work to overcome stigma redefine ideals for family life and gender expectations balance responsibilities in and outside of their homes stretch finances to meet the needs of their families regain strength and self-confidence encourage their children's development affirm the strength of their families cope with depression develop networks of support This intensely personal collection of women's stories and reflections is a must read for everyone who seeks a better understanding of divorce, single-parenting, and being alone, from an insider's perspective.

Download or read book Not the Whole Story written by Lea Caragata and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2014-04-18 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not the Whole Story is a compilation of sixteen stories narrated by single mothers in their own way and about their own lives. Each story is unique, but the same issues appear again and again. Abuse, parenting as single mothers, challenges in the labour market, mental health and addictions issues, a scarcity of quality childcare, immigration and status vulnerability, struggles with custody, and poverty—these factors, combined with a lack of support, contribute to their continued struggles. The themes that recur across stories illustrate that the issues the women face are not just about individual struggle; they demonstrate that major issues in Canada’s social system have been neglected in public policy. In order for these issues to be addressed we need to challenge the flawed public policies and the negative discourse that continue to marginalize single mothers—in terms of the opportunities in their own lives and in terms of how they are understood by other Canadians. The first-person narratives of the struggles and issues faced by low-income single mothers provide narrative richness and are augmented by introductory and concluding chapters that draw the narrative themes together and offer overarching discussion and analysis.

In fact, the culture may be treating you much differently. In some circles, you feel as though you have failed and that you and your children are now a burden on society. Your potential has been stifled, your dreams will never be, and your only chance at redemption can be found in marriage and taking on the appearance of a "normal" family.Do not let the opinions of others define you. True heroes are admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. You, the single mom, are a warrior standing in the gap to lead, nurture, and protect your children. You are, by definition, a hero. Heroes in Our Midst chronicles the lives of eight single moms who rose above their adversities to carve out better lives for themselves and their families. Each real-life story weaves together the challenges, the setbacks, and the limitations these women faced with the inner strength, determination and fortitude that propelled them beyond their circumstances to succeed. In each case, the Helping Hands for Single Moms scholarship program played a supportive role as these moms went to great lengths to achieve their academic goals. Every mom in this book thought at one time that she was no one special, just another of society's single moms. Learn from and be encouraged by the power fierce love has to change a mom's life for the sake of her children.
