I am a single mom living in Georgia. I have 3 kids ages 17, 15, and 12. I don't get a chance to forget about the young years, though, because my sister lives next door. She has 5 kids from the ages of 9 to 3 months old. I rely on my family to help me raising my kids by myself. I also rely on my faith and trust in God to help me. I wouldn't be able to make it without my faith.
There is a fine line between having a mutually-respectful relationship and letting your children run out of control. Apologizing after a disagreement is an important parenting tool that requires a few important steps.
You can do this, even when you don't think you can.
I first fell for Ms. Single Mama a few years ago with her tales of everyday single parenting. Navigating the world after a divorce, with a baby, dating, and grounded by motherhood through it all, Alaina shows us that living with the love of her life, her son, still means a happily ever after.
