Single parenting~
Across the Middle East and North Africa, most parents are effectively single parents.
They are married, but one partner carries most of the responsibilities alone. The other simply enjoys the social benefits of having a family and the illusion of being in control.
It is not so different in other parts of the world. People often say that single parents aren't enough to raise a child, clueless to the fact that most relationships are, in reality, single parenting. And in many cases, it's even worse: the "parent" is a cellphone, or both parents are actually a danger to the child.
If you're a single parent, all that matters is that you do your best and put the kids first, irrespective of what people think. You're doing enough as long as you're doing your best.
