Being a single parent can be both overwhelming and exhilarating. Ask a group of single parents what it feels like to be a single parent and you’re likely to be bombarded by emotional outbursts and words like isolated, exhausted, bitter, scared, insecure, vulnerable, lonely, depressed, anxious, and deeply sad. This book helps single parents learn how to turn single parenting into an empowering and victorious experience. Using everyday examples that help readers gain confidence and learn problem-solving skills, the authors show single parents how to redefine the parenting role and set the stage for teamwork.
