How Single Parents Get It Done

Description:

The default assumption in our culture is that any given child is parented by a heterosexual couple to which that child is biologically related. That is just not the case anymore, by a long shot - and single-parent families are becoming more and more common as reproductive technologies innovate, and women decide that motherhood need not be incompatible with being unmarried. Whether as single parents going it alone or co-parents who live apart, our systems must catch up to the 11.3 million single-parent families in the USA today. In 2020 families take many forms, and we'd all do well to remember that. (And kick in for childcare!) Single parents are out there building businesses and creating value for their children, their communities and their workplaces. Let's support them, shall we?
