If you ask many experts they will tell you that we have a huge problem in America: a single mom or dad raising a child. The struggles that a single parent faces can last a lifetime for many. They have to be both mom and dad to their child, work, take their children to school, cook, clean, run a household…think you get the picture. And most of the times they do this alone. Some stats: 17 million single mothers in the U.S. 24% of them live in poverty. 78% of our current prison population was raised by a single mom! Wow! We need to delve into this. Sometimes single moms are homeless or live in poverty, they deal with abuse and financial burdens they just cannot handle. This is the case for our author today. She has suffered all of the above but has come out of it and is now hailed as a leading authority in single parenting issues. She has launched ministries throughout the country helping single moms. She has personally counseled/mentored to more than 400 single moms and ministered to thousands more. She does not just talk the talk, she has lived it first hand and is doing everything she can to help single moms across America. The book is titles “Overwhelmed: The Life of a Single Mom.” It is our honor to welcome to our show Jennifer Maggio.
