This Soap reminds me of the burden of proof single mothers have to leave a man and decide to struggle for a better future for their children.
Single mothers have raised the great men and women of this world but when it comes to paying attention to their issues, things that touch their hearts and emotions, society always wants to blame them for being single or not being able to please their husbands even in abusive relationships to stay “married.”
I am particularly concerned about how fellow women do not support those single mothers who wake up and pray every morning for God to bless their children AND PROVIDE FOR THEIR NEEDS and the fathers of these children are swimming in luxury with their other wives caring less about whether these other children eat, dress, have descent shelter, go to school, name it.
Running to the Police Child and Family Protection Unit is more than hell for some of these mothers who have violent fathers to their children.
We say the world is in a dynamic thrust of development but how many of us who were raised by single mothers stop to think of their plight?
Our single mothers have gone through untold suffering and some have given up on the hope of ever having a meaning to life. But this can change, my dears.
We care so much about blaming them for what we don’t know but have we ever tried to put on the shoes of a single mother who never went to school and is crying to save the only land that she feeds and gets school fees for her children from because her brothers are blaming her fro not sticking to an abusive marriage?
Care to put a smile on the face of a single mother today. They deserve the medals that have never been realised for them.
Blessings to all the Single mothers and to those who will help give them a meaning to life, just by being kind and encouraging them.
Smiles and share my smiles to all who care.
