CHALLENGES OF A SINGLE MUM PART 2



Hi dear friends
I hope you enjoyed my first write-up on the challenges of a single mum. Due to popular demand for the topic, I feel I should throw more light on the topic.
The life of a single mum in Nigeria in particular, and Africa as a whole, is full of numerous challenges. Haven been a single mum for some years now, I am writing based on my personal experience. 
First of all
- NEGATIVE ENERGY FROM THE MARRIED PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY WOMEN
In Nigeria, when a marriage breaks up, it is automatically assumed that it is the woman's fault. They will just assume that as a woman, you couldn't keep your home, that was why it broke up. But this is totally wrong. It is always good to hear both sides of a story before drawing conclusions. I feel that God has given a man the responsibility of keeping a home together, while the woman submits to the authority of the man, the man should endeavour to keep his home together.
Let us come off all these ego and pride as men, and consciously work towards the unity of our homes and stop leaving the task for the woman alone.
- FINANCIAL DIFFICULTY
When a marriage breaks up, the woman suffers more, because she has to bear her financial burden all alone. Most times, if she is a full-time house wife and the marriage packs up, she will start all over to look for a source of livelihood for her and her children. The woman is also faced with the challenge of looking for a accomodation for herself and her chilren, this is not an easy at all.

THE CHALLENGE OF MEN MAKING PASSES AT YOU.
When your marriage breaks up, men will see you as their sex toy because, every man will feel you are available to them, for the fulfilment of their sexual pleasure. Many women who are single again, fall prey to these men because they come with all manner of promises and at the end of the day, if you fall for them, you will have yourself to blame. For me, the teaching I received early in life as a born again christian, kept me on the right track. I learnt very early in life, that INTEGRITY IS EVERYTHING. As a single woman, when you go sleeping with men, you loose your integrity and reputation and that also puts you into trouble with God Almighty. God says STAY AWAY FROM FORNICATION.  I f you obey this command, he will really come through for you. When you stay clean, you will attract the presence of GOD AND YOU WILL SEE HIM WORKING MIRACLES FOR YOU.

I hope you found this useful.
