I was a solo parent. Not a single parent as far as I was concerned. Single parent implies that the other parent is around somewhere.

Jennifer Ashton

Anyone who loses a parent, you have to find those parts of yourself that your parent held true in themselves, especially if they're supportive parents.

Anthony Rapp

I love being a parent, and when I'm gone even 2 1/2 days for a tournament, I'm forcing Janna to be a single parent.

Karch Kiraly

I'd like to see mothers at home be more assertive, be unapologetic, give themselves permission, and to stand up for themselves as an equal parent, whether that is being a parent who's authoritative and needs to discipline and put healthy boundaries in, or to serve out the candy.

Jo Frost

Once you're a parent, male or female, every single thing that happens in your life is seen through the prism of being a parent.

Russell Crowe

I have met thousands and thousands of pro-choice men and women. I have never met anyone who is pro-abortion. Being pro-choice is not being pro-abortion. Being pro-choice is trusting the individual to make the right decision for herself and her family, and not entrusting that decision to anyone wearing the authority of government in any regard.

Hillary Clinton

I think it's a right that every American parent should have - choice and competition in education, and choice in schools are most important to me.

Cindy McCain

Children that are raised in a home with a married mother and father consistently do better in every measure of well-being than their peers who come from divorced or step-parent, single-parent, cohabiting homes.

Todd Tiahrt

I can't imagine being a single parent or a single parent that doesn't have a lot of money. That's a big, huge impact on your life and your dynamic and everything - I mean, that's huge. It affects how much you have a break from just concentrating on just one other person in your life. It becomes so myopic that way, and more intense, probably.

Joan Cusack

I think being funny is not anyone's first choice.

Woody Allen

Labeling people single parents, for example, when they may in fact be co-parenting - either with an unmarried other parent in the home or with an ex-spouse in a joint custody situation - stigmatizes their children as the products of 'single parenthood' and makes the uncounted parent invisible to society.

Stephanie Coontz

I think there is a time in every person's life where they have to let their parents go and figure out what being a parent means for themselves.

Chris Sullivan

Adoption is a wonderful way of becoming a family. If being a biological parent is any better or more rewarding than being an adoptive parent, I really don't think I could stand it!

Kathleen Silber

I don't think I realised how stressed I was, being a single parent. It was really, really stressful. It's not easy on anybody.

Reese Witherspoon

I don't think being the only child of a single parent helped. I was always a little unsteady in my self-belief. Then there was the Jewish thing. I love being Jewish, I have no problem with it at all. But it did become like a scar, with all these people saying you don't look it.

Lauren Bacall

The single best indicator of whether or not a child is going to be in poverty or not is whether or not they were raised by a two-parent household or a single parent household.
