I think I agreed because now I am a adult I find it is hard to make a lot of money, you can make ample but not a lot, this makes me think of some single parent who struggle every month to meet ends meet, like they need 1000 dollars to make a comfy life for the baby. I feel pity for the father who left them, how would it be to you if you were a single parent? Will take the yourself to suicide or keep on struggling for a better life?

Yeah...God is good. I often pray to God to protect me from some evil man who want to take advantage of me, I am scared that this kind of thing can happen.

I believe all parents struggle, and of course a single parent struggle more! Being one, I can say it's never easy to take care of a child singlehanded for 24/7, but if one take the positive side of the impact, one will be able to go through the tough period soon. We recently has a rave in our country of a single mother abuse her child, and it causes so much comments in the social network. All I can say, if one is not ready, one should never bring another life to the world be it willingly or forced on to.

I was a single parent before and it is difficult I know here in the U.S. there is a lot of help for single parents, but it is still a challenge. You do what needs to be done for your kids.
