Single parents keep a sense of family.
Single parents need to keep a sense of family for their children now that the children's family of origin is broken. Single parents need to give their children a sense of family. This is a question single parents ask time and time again because it is so important to give our children of single parents a sense of family. For children of single parents it must be more than Thanksgiving dinner at Mom's and Christmas dinner at Dad's. We are all anchored to a vast network of family relationships, family patterns, family rules, and various roles played by members of our family.
