S. live part of their young lives with only one parent. 12 families usually result in problems for children and parents alike. Children grow up 13 unsettled as they are moved 14 between parents. Usually one parent is responsible for raising the children. The single parent must 15 all the children's needs. This is very demanding and 16 very little time for the parent's own personal 17 .
