How do you define being a single parent? It probably depends on how you define the word single. As an adjective to the term parenting, the meaning of single applies as in solo, only, lone, solitary, or on one's own. There are other meanings for the term single, such as unmarried and unattached, which is what comes to mind most often when we think of single parents. But those are not the only circumstances in which a parent might experience the role of single parenting.So how do you define single parent?

For me, it's having never been married, but having a child.

I say a single parent is one who has never been married. For some reason, I see divorced and widowed single parents in a different light.....it's not their fault they're single....well, for most divorced single parents, it ain't their fault.

One parent taking care of a child or the children, sometimes unfortunately single parenting can occur in a two parent home.
