My name is Therese and I began my journey as a single parent in 2004 with the birth of my one and only child. Having worked in media for several years, I found the preponderance of negative reports and cruel stereotypes about single parents and their children being major contributors to our societal and cultural woes angering.

How could that be?

Why should that be?

Being a single parent has been emotionally, socially, politically and culturally kaleidoscopic, changing from year to year as my child and I have grown.

I am proud of the path I am creating with him and the adventure I want to share with you.

Single parents, you have so much work to do—and so much to be proud of. You are truly amazing!
