Navigating Single Parenthood

While single parenthood is a choice for many, for others, it's an unexpected change in home and family life that results in several challenges. Most single parents will readily acknowledge the financial ramifications of having to support a family on a single income. However, the emotional and psychological distress is often ignored and, in some cases, invalidated and internalized by single parents to “save face” as a means of protecting the emotional well-being of their children. 

Those navigating single parenthood struggle with feelings of loneliness, grief and loss, parental guilt and shame, low self-esteem and feelings of inadequacy.
