Becoming A Single Mom In Your 30s

Becoming a single mom in your 30s might sound like everyone’s worst nightmare.
You have married the man that you thought would be your partner forever, you have a young child or even several children at this point and you are faced with the prospect of a divorce. All of the usual thoughts run through your head: How will I raise a child on my own? How will I explain to my young children that mom and dad no longer want to live together, how will I meet someone new?

While all of these questions can be very daunting and scary to face, as one single mom put it, she was no longer stuck in the “birdcage” that had become her marriage and was able to discover her own happiness in the face of divorce. This was not only incredibly important for her, but for her child as well. She was able to become the best mother she could be to her young toddler without worrying about the unintended consequences of a high conflict relationship. She could face her 40s and a new relationship without all of the pressures many feel throughout their 30s to get married and have children. That gave her a sense of peace in raising her son and taking her time to find an ideal partner before committing to a new partner
