The worst that any women be of young or old is to have her kids growing up without their father. We all want whats best for our kids but sometimes the situation does not allow us. Some we grew up not knowing what a father is, so we practically fail in that department. We dream to have our dads by our sides every minute to guide us there and there. Yeap we do know that mothers are the best and the strongest, but hey that daddy we also need just for assurance and love. A daughters best friends is her daddy right?
What you did not know is that we/women don’t choose to be single mothers. Sometimes we learn the hard way. No regrets, we love what we have, what we have been blessed with. Careful, single mothers are way protective over their kids. They hold the end of the needle and sharp knife with confidence. All that just to protect their kids.
Ooh yes it is what it is. Today we are grown and know a lot, most probably more that our parents (joking). Just because you became parents at an early age it doesn’t mean the end of your dreams. We/women study, get degrees and work hard, become entrepreneurs and successful young women and motivators. We don’t let anything to hold us back. We are self-motivated and willing to go an extra mile to fulfill our dreams. We doing us. Making our parents and kids proud.
Just because they left you with a child or children it doesn’t mean you don’t deserve to be loved or be in relationship. Yes you have learnt a lot but that’s life and you cannot control it. Embrace life so you could be happy. Embrace happiness my sister. Be you, be happy. Live life to the fullest but not to prove a point to anyone. Do you. Be proud of being a young, motivated mother.
With that said, it doesn’t mean that just because you now have a child, you cannot get love, you cannot be appreciated and all. Single mothers also deserve love and to be treated like queens. Yes they have failed relationships with kids, whom some of you who don’t know anything about blessings call them baggage. Well it’s unto you to love her with her kid but NO she won’t choose you over her child. It doesn’t work like that.
