@Meowmy as single parent I was treated as a social pariah.
Society was ramming to two parent family thing down my throat.
30 years later I was amazed to see how functional, well adjusted and capable my family was compared to the two parent families.
A counsellor told me that as a single parent I had provided constant stability for my children. Regardless of the fact we were in State Housing.
Things we wish we knew.
