It takes a tremendous amount of strength to be a single mother. To hold down the forte of a home, a life and your child's entire happiness.

About This Quote

I have never experienced this myself, but I feel like it's the worst thing you can go through. For someone to be a single mother, to raise their child all by themselves, is extremely difficult. It truly takes strength to do this. It truly takes strength to not turn back at the first sign of trouble.

Many mothers I know are afraid to stand up for themselves and their children because they know that they will be judged harshly for it. They will be judged as having failed at being a mother because they are single parents. This is heartbreaking because every single woman has the potential to be a single mother.
