Transcript Count up all the challenges of parenting and multiply them by two. That’s what it’s like to be a single parent: more obstacles with only half the resources. Today's kids in single parent families may be looking some day to get married. And because only one parent lives with them consistently, these children many times may not get a balanced view of a marriage relationship. This is why, for your kids' sake, it is so important for single moms and dads to be consistent adult role models. Are you talking about marriage in an honorable way in front of your children today? Do you point out positive examples of healthy growing marriages? And how are you referring to your children's dad or mom? Speaking about them in a respectful way can only help in their future relationships with the opposite sex.
