A mother who is raising a child alone is not such a rare occurrence now. There may be a great many reasons for this, but the result is always the same - a woman is alone with a child in her arms.
No cross on personal life
Many single mothers immediately put an end to their personal lives and give themselves entirely to their beloved child. Such behavior is unacceptable, if only because it will not be appreciated by the child later, because a mother who lives by him to the point of obsession does not command respect in the eyes of the child himself.
No overprotectiveness
Thanks to transcendental custody, a child can grow up weak-willed and dependent. Subsequently, it will be very difficult for him to live in society, to create his own family.
Not all men are bad
No matter how difficult a divorce may be, in no case should you live according to the principle "all men are such and such." This is especially true of a mother with her daughter, because such a model of behavior will evoke the wrong guidelines for her too.
Search for helpers
Keeping up with the housework, making money and taking care of the child alone is a difficult mission and you cannot do without help. A mother should not hesitate to ask neighbors, friends or relatives for help, because a wide circle of contacts is useful for a child as well.
Male communication
Communication with men does not harm either boys or girls. Both need to see the role of a man in the family and in society, so the mother can ask someone from her close circle of friends for help.
No remorse needed
Usually single mothers torment themselves with remorse for not being able to keep the family together. But they must remember: it is not so important why the divorce happened, it is important now - how to live on. Only a loving mother knows how to create all the conditions for a child better than both parents who are always busy with quarrels.
To spare no time for a child
Communication with mom is the most important thing for a child, and this cannot be replaced by nannies or relatives. Therefore, a working single mother needs to find time to spend with her child.
The child needs the truth
When asking a child about his father, one should not invent fairy tales, because sooner or later everything secret will become clear. You just need to try to tell the version as close as possible to the truth of why the child does not have a dad.
You don't need anything bad about your father
Whatever the father of the child is, this is not a reason to talk nasty things about him in front of the child. It is better to answer something with silence or a slightly softened truth due to the age of the baby.
Loving a child is the main thing
This is the most important thing for all children and it is thanks to love that they grow up happy. Mom should always show concern and show what the child means to her.
