Declaring herself “General President of the Single Mothers Association,” the actress urged single mothers to embrace confidence, resilience and self-esteem, and not to feel ashamed of their status.
In her words, “Gone are the days when being a single mother was a stigma. Children of single mothers are doing great things in life. Men chase single mothers. They even beg us not to want us to be a side chick. They want us to marry them because we have experience. If one man leaves you, another will accept you. I am the general president of the Single Mothers Association.”
