The dilemma of being a single mother can be conquered by Strong will and determination
My friend Sandra suffered depression from the time she took in to the time she gave birth. She never stopped lamenting how she regrets having anything to do with him. He denied the pregnancy and provided zero financial and moral support to her. And I asked again,"How can a man be this cruel?".
she was shattered and regrets was her dwelling place. Most times I felt that words of encouragement isn't enough but physical presence too.
Sometime during her pregnancy, she had a terrible road accident and thankfully she didn't lose the child but she had wished for a miscarriage at that point. The emotional struggle was so intense on her.
All these and many more she passed through without any support from him or his family.
When the child was born and he got informed that she gave birth to a baby boy he demanded for DNA test🤦♀️ he has got some nerves😠. After a lot of meetings between both families the DNA test was done and it was positive,you needed to see the looks of regrets on his face. He began to apologize to her and her family,of course I wasn't going to forgive him but she did anyways 🤷♀️. Nonetheless an agreement was made and she took custody of her child.

My advice to all single mothers all over the world; I can't say I know for sure how it feels to be a single mother, but within you lies the power to wake up from depression, sad mood and the feelings of being rejected. Don't stay ideal pondering on how you got there rather fix yourself where you can get income to pay bills and give your children a comfortable life. It's a difficult task to play both roles as a mother but your strength surely lies in the love and bond between you and your child, so everything you want them to become is possible through your unconditional love and support. Ignore as much as can the beings that call themselves "perfect",there words can only do more harm than good. You are a superwoman clothed with strength enough for both you and your children.
Be strong for your child...
Spread your wings and crush every naysayers and haters...
Do the best you can to give them the most important of there needs...
Your children are your strength and they keep you going.
By the way my friend sandra is doing pretty well in taking care of herself and her child. She is a hairdresser and with that she supports herself and her baby (Uriel).
