A single mother is a woman who raises her child or children without the support of a partner. This situation can arise from various circumstances, including divorce, separation, or the choice to have children without a partner. Single mothers often manage all aspects of parenting, including emotional support, financial responsibilities, and daily care. Many single mothers face unique challenges, such as balancing work and family life. They may rely on family, friends, or community resources for assistance. Support systems, like childcare services and government programs, can help single mothers provide for their children and maintain a stable home environment.
