Single parents are often asked about their partners. The world wants to know what happened to their partner, whether they have left the family or dead and are more concerned to know the story of their gone partner rather than the partner who is there, right there. The one who is left alone knows the pain they have to endure and the hardships they have to go through,
especially when they have children. Their children’s future is what they see rather than their personal preferences and that’s how single parents become strong parents. On the other hand, kids of single parents grow up looking at their parent’s lone struggle in this competitive, racing world.
They grow witnessing the strength of their parent and thus children brought up by strong single parents become stronger. At least, as per my observation, I have seen it that way. Here is the story of a widowed mother whose three daughters have cleared the Administrative services exam in spite of the hardships the family encountered.
Kamla, Geeta and Mamta were born into a family in Rajasthan that had no basic amenities required for the basic survival. Leave behind luxuries, the girls have never experienced the goodness of basics either. On top of that, the passing away of their father got the complete responsibility of the family on their mother’s shoulders who toiled day and night in the fields to provide them meals.
