EXCERPT FROM THE STUDY
A single parent is one living without a spouse and on whose shoulders lay the higher responsibility of looking after a child. The single parent is the primary caregiver with whom the children have most residencies with. In most situations, it happens after separation or divorce and the mother becomes the main caregiver as the custodial parent, and the father becomes a minor giver as the noncustodial parent. In some instances though, such roles may exchange between the parents (Abudu and Fuseini, 2013).
Single parenthood is a growing trend in today‟s world; this can be endorsed to increased rates of divorce, separation, mortality amongst parents and individual decisions to be single parents. This has truth according to the LCA No.21 (2009) (1) (a) that asserts that, Subject to the provisions of the Law of Marriage Act, where parents of a child are separated or divorced, a child shall have a right to maintenance and education of the quality he enjoyed immediately before his parents were separated or divorced.
