  independant mother I am a natural beaver creating support systems and ways out everywhere...so, connected- independant...not single. If I was single I would have a one bedroom or a room mate who shares the rent. Hanz was raised without paternal childsupport, with extra maternal support - FORK and a spirit brother Sasha for the first 7 years... We did well.
Late 80's early 90's in the states, it was unpopular and even controversial to breast feed, whole foods was a way, not a chain of stores, no TV was considered negligent...we listened to our inner wisdom, supported eachother and waited for the day....today...when they ask us HOW? and say WOW ...we did not wait for the government to fund the reasearch to tell us what we knew. we knew. We know. Thank GOOODNESS. we are all benefitting from children who were allowed to be healthy.
