Single mothers do not in any circumstance have an advantage over single fathers. Especially in today’s society‚ when there are a lot of stay-at-home fathers‚ due to the economic recession‚ and the divorce rate being higher than ever this gives fathers an equal opportunity to be the primary caregiver in the child’s upbringing.

One of the biggest contributes to shame is societal norms‚ and how different they are around the world. Personally‚ I think shame is dumped hardest on people who are only slightly different because they fit in‚ in a weird in-between‚ and not quite into one group or another.
