ALL ALONE?
By Jill Worth & Christine Tufnell
Spring Harvest. 138 pages

All Alone? is an easy read which discusses many of the major issues with which single parents struggle - emotions, forgiveness, the grieving process, finances, sexuality, loneliness, helping the children, and good advice about remarriage. It principally addresses parents who are widowed or divorced, but rarely mentions unwed mothers - a serious omission.
The back cover says it is from a Christian perspective, but the book nowhere claims this. Rarely is God mentioned. Nowhere is the Bible referenced for backup for the authors' opinions. Not being clear on whether the authors are seeking to help Christians or non-Christians makes it difficult to access.
