Today in the United States,
being raised by a single parent is not uncommon. About three in ten children
live in a single parent home. The most common type
of single parent home is one with only a mother. However, single father homes
are the fastest growing type of family situation; the amount of single fathers
has grown by 60% in the last ten years alone. How are fathers coping? Much
the same way as single mothers cope. There is a lot more work at home, and
adjustments need to be made. On this episode of AAR, we talk about the do’s
and the don’ts of single parenting and share some rock solid advice.
Special guests include Amy Powell, Community Outreach Coordinator for MELD & Melissa Bogart, Young Moms Group Facilitator for MELD. Both are single mothers.
