Update -- Publisher's Note -- 2 Sept 04

Being a single parent can be difficult.  It is important to surround yourself with a supportive network of friends.  Its also import to continue to grow as a parent and a person throughout the single parenting experience.  There are several places that you can go to be fed emotionally, intellectually and spiritually.  I would like to highlight two of these:
