Breaking barriers, building communities
Living life as a single mother and most especially single mothers with disability in this modern era is challenging. Single mother holds multiple roles and responsibilities. Apart from being the sole breadwinner of the family, she is also obliged to attend to her children’s welfare and well-being.
Despite the government doing different things to help them, there are still numerous cases on poverty, socio economic, emotional and psychological issues among single mothers most especially those with disabilities. It is our social duty to reach out to this susceptible group and help them to try to evade the normal stigma from the society. This particular group does not only need financial and emotional assistance, but they need to be respected, recognized and empowered.
Single-mothers’ families are particularly almost but not all a vulnerable group. Almost fifty per cent of single mothers with dependent children are at risk for poverty or social exclusion. Some even consider single mother’s families as a euphemism for problem families and there is still a rise in the number of single mother household. The stigma still persists and mother households are still often considered underclass, broken and deviant, holding a double role to run a family and being the primary source of financial contributor is uneasy task; numerous cases of depression convey the message of the great impact being a solo mother with disability in the family.
Because of the poverty in vulnerable single mothers and girls most especially single mothers with disabilities, some single mother acquires housing facility. Singles in these circumstances may face social safety net issues in their senior years because they cannot own a home without first securing a bank loan. Emotional psychological assistance, feeding and school fees for their children, they need skills development, capacity building and financial support for these single mother’s startups.
