Challenges Faced by Single Parents
– Single parents have to do all three things simultaneously – work, run the house and take care of the child. Even if you are busy at work, you have to make time for the children and share the responsibility towards the child. In such a situation, children often get angry.
– Single parents have greater financial responsibility. Day by day they have to handle all the expenses related to the needs, education and health of the children alone. Along with this, you also have to save for the future. So that the children never have to face problems due to money.
– A single parent also has to ensure that the child never feels the absence of a mother or father. A single parent has to fulfill two responsibilities 24 hours a day.
-Being a single parent also makes one feel lonely. There is no one to help him in decisions related to the children. He has to fulfill all the responsibilities alone which is very difficult.
– Single parents also face discrimination, especially if a woman is a single parent, then times are more challenging for her. Because even in today's time, there are different perceptions in society about a woman who gets divorced.
