LUISTER | Seuns Sonder Pa’s – Are you raising your child as a single parent?
Updated | By Workzone with Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp
Being
a single mom is hard – even with all the joy our little one brings into our
world. And parenthood is not only about motherhood. But where is the place for fatherhood in South Africa?
Over 60% of children in South Africa grow up without a
father. But the work of a single mother is more than double of what you
would think it would be.
Journalist Julian Jansen talks Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp through

Pa’s’, outlining the impact on households where the father is absent.
