TO RAISE a family when the both parents are very much around is not an easy task. How much more difficult it is to be a single parent! God is their strength.
BUT I AM especially thoughtful when single parenthood is occasioned by divorce. That is the worst type. A study has shown that children of divorced parents are less likely to sustain their own marriage than those of other parents who stayed together. Parents should therefore do whatever within their means to stay together, provided that life has not been threatened. Whether or not we admit, the process of divorce puts the child through a stress almost greater than the parents. It is an indelible scar that we cannot cover with giving the child all the good things in life.
