Not that many people actually have a choice when thrust into single parenthood but I’m here to tell you, it is certainly NOT for those who are going to faint at the slightest woe. Being a single parent means changing a few of your course directives and creating a new plan of action that now demands the needs of the little person (s) that you now govern. To make matters more challenging, if you have a child with special needs, life becomes THAT much more interesting.
