Being a single parent more so a single mother is not easy.

Many single mothers go through a lot of challenges raising children on their own and the hardest part is when they decide to get married. To some, they end up losing this chance just because they have children. No man will accept to take care of another man's burden.

Recently, Kenyan single mothers almost skinned marriage counselor Bi Msawfiri alive, after she said that single mothers should leave their children at home when getting married.

Here remarks angered many struggling singles mothers around.

Well, one of the most successful Kenyan mothers, Esther Akothee has finally given some sound advice to her fellow single mothers. The mother of five who has gone through

The mother of five who has gone through a lot in her life has encouraged single mothers to love themselves and not to entertain these men who prey on women and dump them especially after realizing that they have kids.

"Daddy I saw you on social media with a beautiful family, you have already moved on, how about us? mummy I saw you on the newspaper you just bought yourself a new car, well, we are still at grandmother's place where you left us, the only problem is our shoes don't fit anymore and grandma ain't feeling well, nobody to cook for us, daddy /mummy think about us, where did we go wrong, what did we do to you?

As a mother you have no choice but to carry their hearts in your hand, same way you were patient for 9 months, don't mind people's opinion, they don't even know who their father is self 

Any man who tells you he can't date a woman with children! that sh*t is not meant for you, he wants to use you, enjoy your goodies & leave, don't be afraid of your status, carry your children like a necklace, the most precious one, sing about your children in his ears until it becomes a house anthem.

Show love to your children & the rest will follow suit, kama ngumu kanyaga frame. Mrs Alone I come with a set of 5 #teambigfive, let me see how many we are here tag me your team #singlemothers rock. Dont forget there are families with both dad & mom living under the same roof but the kids

Don't forget there are families with both dad and mom living under the same roof but the kids don't feel their presence, this is worse than torture. It's either you are on the left or on the right, this is dangerous."
