single parent

There are obviously going to be problems being a single parent, because you won't have anybody there for you who will help you to look after your child. In addition to this, if you are a single parent you might struggle with childcare because you need to work and there is no other partner to look after your child while you're not there. However, if you have a loving and supportive family who are always there for you, then you will find that they are enough to help you with your child and you don't need a man to support you or your child if it isn't possible for him to be there.
