Single Mother

My mom has been through a lot with me she got me healthy even if she was sick during the time I was a baby, She has helped me with my reading and writing disability and has pushed me to do my best. She is a strong confident woman that is loving she loves to attend to people and has a great smile. She has shown me that even if times are hard you have to bring your head up and raise it high. I maybe a mama’s boy but my mom is one of my greatest role models and people I admire.

There was a crucial period in my life when I felt dependent on my parents: preschool. At that time, my mom quit her job to become a full time mom and my dad

“You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don 't make money your goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can 't take their eyes off you.”

My mother has taught me to be courageous and always stand up for what I believe in. Every day, when I think about all that she went through while raising us, I really am astonished. She has basically given up her life for us making sure that we be successful in everyway. I can remember her letting me try out for club basketball when I was in sixth grade, the money didn’t even daunt her she always found away. However, when someone hurts anyone of us she has no problem standing up for us. I can

When I was in seventh grade my family went through a couple of hardships. My dad quit his job as a result of being treated unfairly and my mom was the only person bringing in income for the household. We barely had groceries and we were always unsure of whether we would have the money to pay off the bills or not. School was just around the corner and normally we buy new everything for the new school year, however, my mom was working overtime while my dad was doing his best to find side

When my parents became separated, I lived with my mom most of the time. Since her priority was her business, she would come home late every night. Found myself home alone mostly every day and night. My mother got very sick because of the stress she obtained from working

Single moms face a challenge within their lives. Some mothers become single through divorce and while others become single outside of wedlock. However, there is no set age for a single mom. Statics states that most females become single moms before they finish high school and is receiving some type of government assistance for help. The average single mom has either dropped out of school or working a minimum paying job. Because of the high cost of living rate it is impossible for these single moms to provide a healthy life for their children. Therefore the Department of Human

My mom is honestly my rock, she has been there for me through everything. Throughout life we have definitely had our differences, mostly it’s me, the teenager wanting to do something stupid and my mom trying to show me why i shouldn’t make these careless decisions. As a teenager you might think you are grown and know everything that’s why the parents are there to knock some sense into our brains, they have been through the same exact stuff, they can shed some light on the situation. Parents try to teach their kids to learn from their mistakes but, everyone has to learn from their own mistakes. So the parents can only do their best at teaching their children morals. My mother has taught me everything i know, starting off with being grateful everyday, living in the moment every single day, to seize the day. My mom has taught me right from

Being a single mother of two has given me many responsibilities. From early morning's too late nights. Being a mother has changed my life for the better. I enjoy being able to be a full-time mom and full-time student. The only downfall is that being a single parent makes it harder to have time to volunteer and participate in my community, as I would like to do. I hope to one day soon be involved in my community and be able to volunteer. And as my children get older; to be able to bring them along as well because I feel it is important for everyone including kids to lend a helping hand to those in need. Exposing them to do volunteer work will help shape them for the better. Doing community work is definitely in my list of goals this year since

Since being in a single parent home for the majority of my life along with being the oldest child, I have had to assume leadership and responsibilities above and beyond those expected from other kids my age. I am the one who keeps the house in working order. From calling repairmen, keeping the yard in pristine condition, to housecleaning, and having the food we need for the week. I am also the chef in the house. I have to make sure that dinner is on the table every night and cleaned up afterwards. My role in our home has strengthened my personal character by becoming more dependable, hardworking, and resourceful. Perhaps the most important and more meaningful responsibility I have at home is caring for my younger brother. While this has taught

The tales of single mothers who were capable of getting out of welfare created a sense of hope for those single parent who had become dependent on welfare. They were tales of the capabilities of the state providing a helping hand to those in need. However, with every tale there is the other extremes of the single mothers who didn’t make it out of poverty and still depended on welfare. As it would seem, some of single mothers would have the adequate support but the rest would have support provided by the state. A support that would contained limitations and impossible requirements.

There are several advantages of single parenting .first, No compromises. You get to be the sole decision maker. With big decisions, especially if you have an amicable co-parenting relationship, you may have to occasionally consult the other parent. But, for the most part, you get to decide .second, less stress when you are not spending your time and energy fighting with your husband you feel happier .also, you child feel comfortable this create less stress in your home .you finally have the time and energy to spend with your child and you feel happy. Third, children feel like part of the team. Since you will be spending much more time with them alone, they will probably have more of a voice in family decisions. They will learn that what they have to say matters and that willing to listen to their opinions. Finally, one less “child” to care for taking care of kids is one thing, things do get very stressful,

Getting to where I am today, was not easy. I had to overcome some obstacles that taught me some life lessons. One of the factors that has contributed to my life choices is my mother. I have a close relationship with my mom. Whenever I have something that is bothering me, I like to

How my mother is a big part in my life. My mom is the person that sticks everything together. She is the foundation of my world and I would be lost without her. She is the one in my family that does the work, knows what's best for me and knows what my limits are. My mom is the biggest and the best role model in my life and when I grow up I will know to push my limits and never give up. I hope to have a bright future, just like she did.
