Single Blessedness: True Or False?

Published by admin on December 30, 2007

Is there such a thing as “Single Blessedness?” It is an idea to be fathomed for we can’t consider it generally acceptable. Being single does not focus on the physical aspect of one, simply because there is an absence of a romantic partner, or a hubby. The essence of the word single blessedness is what it takes inside the ver being of a person. It counts to the attitude you develop, and carry after one separates or divorce from a long-time partner. In the single status everything is light under your reach, all within definite bounds under your discretion, especially decisions makings.You enjoy being the total master of yourself without the circumstances of nagging, when things turn out not to be in good shape.

There are so many factors behind separations. Wherever it takes them, the price is to be single again. It is freeing oneself from the pressures of a controlled life of having a companion. They say if you are with somebody up there, and settled fixed in marriage, you own your freedom on a fifty-fifty basis. It is tantamount to denying yourself of the basics in life. Conjugal life is so complicated. You will always adhere to the principle, one heart, soul, body and spirit. The very physical side aspect of conjugal partnership, “it takes two to tango,” is the real meaning of the so-called partnership. The material side of marriage is to share each other’s share in bringing home the “beacon.”

Definitely, in husband and wife lives, one is a sacrificial lamb, a picture of total subject and submission. Needless to say that in this modern-day life, they believe that husband and wife are equal in the eyes of the modern-day society. Both enjoy and suffer the consequences of having to share conjugal responsibilities. The meek woman of yesterday, during the time of our great grandparents personifies both the cooperative and reluctant housekeeper these days.

In the advent of women’s emancipation in the early l900’s, the domestic roles of women have declined owning to the many jobs offered by many establishments that demand the female populace to work. Who would ever think of enjoying a married life of limited freedom with a nagging or jealous husband. Now it is a matter of who takes the bigger beacon or bread. As if by choice marriage could last basing on the strength of each to accept who is the lesser asset in the family.

It is too much to believe in the so-called, “marriage lasting forever,” as long as they live. Married people take divorce by choice to be single again to get out from the demands and pressures that surround it. With, or without due reason at all everybody seem to get out from its knots, and once divorce is filed, can’t be denied. It is rather a discretion to get thru what undesirable experience in marriage has it.

All what has been written above refers to the erred woman, at times, before her chauvinist insecure husband. How about the male in general, against a nagging wife? The fact that women too became role breadwinners in today’s generation, they became more aggressive and most of the time, you find them fighting in court against their husbands who fell prey to their kind of arrogance. As a consequence, the erred husband finds solace in somebody else’s arms. Neither this act could be a solution to his bitterness towards his wife. The family ends up in total chaos, and finally this simple unit in our society goes into devastating rumble. Being single again is all that matters on each end. It ensues a very irrevocable need, and the general idea lies in the voluminous lists in the courts filed today for legal process. Single blessedness? Is it right to be in this state? There is no definite answer. However you always enjoy being single.

The cycle of life and history of all the character victims in each family endlessly repeat itself. There is no right formula to stop us from our need to be single again. After all, we were born single, and the genetic rule prevails and we will end up to return where we should be in all eternity, in our single state. That’s how it comes about in “single blessedness.”

Feasible Child Care Options For Single Parents

Published by admin on December 30, 2007

One of the main challenges that face single parents is child care. The vast majority of single parents need to work and as a result they need to find suitable care for their child. If the child is a baby or toddler it can be a bit more difficult than a child that is of school age.

When a single parent is looking for full time child care they have several options. One is to hire a nanny. This is someone who either lives with the single parent and the child or simply spends a portion of each day in their home. This is normally the most expensive alternative when it comes to child care but for a single parent with a demanding career it can be the only choice.

Another choice in child care for the single parent is to utilize the child’s grandparents or aunts and uncles. Many family members are happy to help the single parent in any way they can and that includes providing quality care. It doesn’t hurt for the single parent to ask relatives about providing child care. The worst that can happen is they’ll say no.

Traditional daycares also offer single parents child care. This is a great choice because it is generally very affordable and also helps the child to develop their interpersonal skills. Parents who are single often qualify for a subsidy and they can ask the daycare staff about this during the interview process. It’s important to get references from the daycare staff as well as tour the facility.

If a child is older the single parent can look towards the school for child care support. Many elementary schools now have after school programs for children. These are very inexpensive and the child does not need to be transported at all. They stay at their school until the parent leaves work and can pick them up. Most schools recognize that single parents face more obstacles than their married counterparts and are happy to accommodate when the parent is running a bit late. The child does need to leave by a certain time each day though so arrangements must be made if the parent will be very late.

Older children often will ask to go over to a friend’s house after school sometimes. This can also be another alternative for the single parent looking for childcare. Some children want to always go to their best friend’s home after school. If this is a common occurrence than the single parent might consider contacting the parents of their child’s friend and asking about paying them for childcare. Many parents welcome the extra bit of income and the company for their child after school.

If a single parent is living on a very fixed income than they may be able to receive free childcare. Many governments offer fully funded childcare programs for families living on a small income, this includes single parent families. When looking for childcare, check out this option if you are a single parent.
