Being a parent is tough, being a single parent is even tougher! Be an awesome parent while keeping your sanity! Cupid has some advice:

2. Communicate: Always keep an open line of communication with your child. Be the type of parent that your child trusts and feels like they can always talk to. When you have a close and respectful bond with them, the parenting role can get a whole lot easier.

3. Remain Positive: It’s easier said than done, but don’t lose hope! Try to be as positive as you can, even when things look dim. Find the good in the bad, the light in the darkness. A negative attitude will not help. Accept that there will be challenges along the way, and just be ready to take ’em on!
