Life is full of challenges. I think we all can agree with that. What matters, though, is how you choose to handle the situations you are going through.In her candid book INDEPENDENTLY RAISING A MAN author Shondreka Palmer shares not just her experience of being a single mother but how she realized the importance of being the person person and example possible.As someone who doesn't have any children of my own it was great to see how so much of what she talked about in the book can relate to other individuals as well. She realized the importance of making the right decisions for herself as well as her son, and then she committed herself to a plan that would bring about the life she wanted.Even after giving birth she talks about how she went back to being "Shondreka" by being healthy and developing a lifestyle that she could pass on to her child. He would also be able to see how his mother went about making the right decision in other areas of her life and giving him the time and attention he deserved while still being able to discipline when needed.This book is really one of those reflections that touches on so much that comes with any new responsibility, and Shondreka Palmer does a great service to others by sharing what worked for her and what can be possible for others.Insightful and encouraging, INDEPENDENTLY RAISING A MAN gives single parents hope.
