As years went by, there are a growing number of kids that are products of single parenting. This is result of the increasing number of marriages that have failed and of course, of all the relationships that didn’t work out.

Many people—whose relationships are on the rocks—don’t realize it yet that single parenting would be the best option for their child rather than placing them in an environment where there is tension everyday. Aside from their personal growth, experts say that one of the areas where the child is greatly affected by constant fighting inside the house is his or her schooling.

If you are one of those parents who would not want their kid's schooling to be affected so much by being in an unhappy relationship then now is the best time to opt for single parenting. Not many parents know that schooling has become less and less friendlier for kids. And though there are better classrooms and teachers, this doesn’t change the fact that there is more pressure that is placed on the kid's shoulder. Given this set up, it would not help if the child lives in an environment where there is animosity.

Seeing the signs

If you are centered on the welfare of the child, it would be best to make his or her as the top priority of your life. If you feel that being in a relationship no longer helps your child to be better, then you might want to raise the child on your own. Experts say that single parenting would be best for the child if he or she shows:

- persistent frustration. This is the major sign of kids who are losing interest in school due to pressure brought by the people around him or her. At first, this may be vague and can be mistaken as tantrums but eventually, this behavior will become more and more noticeable because it will manifest in other things as well as places not only at school but outside the home as well.

- failed grades and repeated failure in completing school works. This is a very alarming symptom of the child who is greatly affected by constant fighting of his or her parents. Experts say because this shows that the problem at home affects his or her everyday function in school. If nothing is done this early, it may manifest to other destructive behaviors of the child.

- extreme struggle in staying in one task. This is one of the worst effects of having parents that argue everyday because this leads to decrease on confidence of the child. If the child loses his or her confidence, he or she would not be able to complete anything thinking that nobody will be there to guide him or her.

- tends to ignore people and the things that they say. Experts say single parenting is the best option for kids if you and your partner are on the verge of separation. When the child no longer pay attention to what others say and generally lose interest in school and in other aspects of his or her life, then now is the best time for you to extend help.
