Let's face it. It's true we all do not remain married for one reason or another. But, through it all for those of you who have children, there's nothing better than having a child to love. I find it very, very deserving and challenging of being a single parent. I would not trade the responsibly for anything. Though times get tough and rough every now and then, I find it draws me and my child closer together. Single parenting does not have to be as hard as some expert claims. It's something you eventually get use to and accept. Once your child or children accept the way things are then the healing process really begins to materialize in such a way they will be willing to share their thoughts, concerns, and well-being with you. You as a "single-parent" will find this most appreciating when your children come to you, rather than you always having to go to them by asking certain probing questions.
Over the last several years I have found ways to bond with my child even when many attempts were there to distract her from me of who I really was in her life. If you are a single parent enjoy every moment you possibly can with your children regardless if you are the custodial parent or the non-custodial parent. The relationship you can have with your children will be memories of a lifetime especially as your child gets older and you share with each other real life issues. The more you share with your children without going into any graphic details the more your child or children will trust you. Think about your relationship with your children right now. Is it the way you want it to be though you and the other parent are not Seeing Eye to eye? Is your relationship with your child as smooth as butter or is it as rocky as the rocks in your back yard? Your children are here to bring you joy. Enjoy your child or children and always be open to their "well-being."
Your child or children are an asset to you and not a liability. Look, Children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of your womb is a reward. Psalm 127:3.
