I've been a single parent for a long time. It reminds me of being a waitress. As you walk back to the kitchen, requests come at you from all sides. You're doing the job of two - you have to be highly organised.

It has been tough being a mother of two daughters without a co-parent because I think I was a child myself, as my mother was.

Single parenting is sometimes just a case of sitting around by yourself in mild despair, not knowing what to do.

I was divorced when my children were young, so I was a single mother for a while. It's so hard to have to do every little thing yourself and be forced to navigate the rocky emotions of motherhood alone.

For me, just being how old I am, I know I don't want to be a single mom. I really would rather make it a two-person job. But I've also come to terms with not being a mother at all. I'm actually really good with either direction that my life can take as being a valid experience.

Raising kids these days is hard. I'm the second to last child in my family. I think it's tough; I have two kids, I see them and I feel like I see things in them; they awaken the inner child in you.

I have a husband, and babysitters; I find it hard. I find it amazing how single moms do it.

I admire my mother for being a single mum. It's ridiculously hard.
