"Strange, ugly things happen between single parents and children. And also the most beautiful things." —Jodie Foster, American actress single mother, child of single mother
"My advice to other single mothers is to celebrate your sons and daughters. Be excited about everything they do, praise them for efforts big and small, and minimize arguing. Allow them to have good relationships with their fathers. Make them feel loved and appreciated."
If you bungle raising your children, I don't think whatever else you do matters very much. —Jackie Kennedy Onassis Former First Lady, Former Single Mother
