In Her Shoes Carla Shelton

Parenting is undoubtedly a significant responsibility, and even more when the mantle falls on a single parent. A single parent has to bear with added responsibilities, tensions, pressures, and the never-ending list. Due to multiple reasons such as separation, divorce or death of a spouse, a single parent is left alone to deal with various tasks. But that should not make a single parent's life very miserable. There are always meaningful ways to overcome the initial difficulties about single parenting. In Her Shoes: Single Parent Edition is a book that is long overdue. It is a collaborative effort of 6 single parents who have boldly and vulnerably shared their stories of trials and tribulations, triumphs and victories that have weaved their path in being a single parent. I know you will find someone in this book that is just like you. Every single parent in this book has stepped through fear and doubt and have had to overcome obstacles along the way. I think they all share one hope for you. Their hope is that you will read each of their stories, learn from their journeys, celebrate their victories but more importantly, they want you to be encouraged that despite all they have been through, they are proud of the lives they have designed for themselves and their children.
