single motherhood

Governor Brownback , like a wolf in sheep's clothing, speaks about goals such as reducing childhood poverty while passing laws that actually deepen poverty throughout the state.

Mother’s Day always makes me think about the up and down journey motherhood has been for me and many of the women I know. I had my first child at nineteen and I still don’t know how I made it. I worked two jobs, with the first one starting at five in the morning and the second one finishing at nine at night. I couldn’t afford full-time childcare, so I moved my son Danny between two part-time centers that weren’t as good as I hoped for but better than I could afford.
