What were you what sort of cultural touch points about single motherhood were on your mind?

Yeah, that's really, that's really, really interesting.

You know, one of the things that comes through both in how you're speaking about your experience, Danielle, and also how the experiences of the, you know, 30 plus women that you talked to, Pallavi, are kind of hitting me.

There's joy.

There's so much joy and so much joy.

to love and so much to be happy about in these journeys that these single moms are going through.

What did the women that you spoke to, Pallavi, tell you were the joys or the pros of single motherhood?

Hmm.

Danielle, what have been the joys or the pros of single motherhood for you?

I wonder, what about some of the cons of single parenthood?

Like, Apolavia, you talked to so many different women.

What are some of the big things that came up as far as the cons of single parenthood?

Oh, yeah.

That didn't even cross my mind.

Danielle, yeah, I'm wondering, like, what have you found yourself to be some of the cons of single parenthood or like, you know, from your community of other like solo moms?

What are some of the things that you've heard or experienced?

It's interesting.

A lot of the cons that you all have brought up are either things, to your point that you just made now, Danielle, are things that parents in general are thinking about, such as cost of living, and also too, where can I raise my family where my child will feel like they have community?

I wonder, what are some of the tactics that

single moms are employing to work around the challenges presented by not having that parenting partner, whether they be logistical, whether they be, you know, emotional, because sometimes the things that your children are dealing with are so big that you maybe, I imagine it can feel very isolating to sometimes be trying to process them on your own.
