Whether you are single do to divorce, death of a spouse, or adoption, raising a child alone can be quite challenging. With today's economy, being in the state it is presently in, it can be rather expensive as well. However, there are various ways in which a single parent can still live a successful happy life.On average, single parent families are at higher risk of poverty when compared to families with both parents. For this reason, most single parents seek financial support to help with the financial need of raising a child. One option for financial support is child support. Child support goes to the parent that carries the most responsibility for the child. The amount of child support given to the parent is set on a case-by-case basis or by a formula predicting the amount that parents should pay to support their children.Child support is not the only financial assistance option for single parents. Apart from child support, there are over 900 different types of government grants and financial aids available for single parents. Several websites offer financial assistance for single parents as well. Depending on the age of the child, parents can use government grants and other employer supported programs to cover their child's daycare cost. Financial help for daycare can be found at the Human Services office in your county. However, you must meet certain criteria in order to be eligible for financial assistance.Apart from the financial assistance needed to raise a child alone, children in single parent households will often need emotional support as well. Most children from single parent homes struggle with trying to determine why they have a broken family. It is necessary to assure your child that this situation has nothing to do with their behavior, looks, grades etc. Your child will need much of love and attention during this time of uncertainty. As your child grows, placing them in extracurricular activities, such as sports or dance, will help alleviate some of the tension often found in single parent homes. No matter the age of your child, provide them with double the love to replace the need for that missing parent.
