SINGLE MOMS ARE SUPERSTARS

-

After reading the interview with Amor Vittone (YOU, 11 August), I’d like to tell you about my experience of being a single-income household.

Since my husband died in 2020, his family hasn’t given me one cent towards raising our two minor children, despite his family being millionair­es. My youngest child also has a chronic medical condition as well as a severe learning disability.

But it’s fine. I’m showing my children that single parents are superheroe­s. I’m teaching them the value of integrity and

dignity. We’ll manage on our own. SHANNON NELMES, EMAIL
