#single-parenting

Just describing the situation in which Linda (Rose Byrne) finds herself in Mary Bronstein's descent-into-hell motherhood drama If I Had Legs I'd Kick You is enough to provoke the state of heightened anxiety that the movie seeks to create in its audience. While her unhelpful husband (Christian Slater, mainly heard as a voice on the phone) is away on a long work trip, Linda finds herself single-parenting their chronically ill daughter (Delaney Quinn).

Awful? No. If you're worrying about betraying your cousin, she can't (and doesn't seem to want to) lay claim to every former paramour. But there are a lot of intertwined relationships here, so I would tread more carefully than if the handyman were just a casual acquaintance. First, there's the fact that he's working for you, specifically in your home. If you were to pursue a relationship with him, I'd first find another handyman and be clear with him about why.

America has the world's highest rate of children living in single-parent households, with about 40% of all births to unmarried women, which is double the rate from 40 years ago.

"For me, in my household, I am SINGLE. So I'm holding it down for everyone at home. I'm the only parent present day to day."

I don't want what they had, and then also being very honest with myself and understanding that I did not have the capability of being healthy in a relationship.

"Most importantly, I realized that I truly love caring for, helping, and taking care of people. I always have, and this gives me purpose again."},{
