Parenting Alone
Here are some ideas to aid you when separated from your husband and effectively functioning as a single parent:
- Spend quality time with your children.
- Don’t burden your children with your moods. Try to be positive with them.
- Listen to your children, and seek their advise on decisions concerning the home and outside activities.
- Encourage the children to keep in touch with Dad through notes and pictures.
- Plan special times together—game night, special dinner, bowling, etc.
