Parenting

I have four children. It takes lots of time being a single parent. You have to be there all the time. You cannot go out because you need a babysitter. My children want to know about things and sometimes I don’t know what to say. You need money for school trips, food, and bills. When a new baby comes along every one has to make adjustments. For a while you’ll be feeling a little short on sleep. And if you have other kids they’ll be feeling a little short on attention. Children need someone to help them with education at home and to be there for them when they go to school. Parents should also take time out for themselves to relax.
