The story of the prodigal son is one many Catholics are familiar with and one many of us can identify with too.
Single parents left with all the responsibility and burden can easily slide into the mindset of the older son. Resentment can creep up when finances are decimated, little ones need care, and you are exhausted and run down and isolated. This is when it is most important for you to choose love, not as the sons did, but as the father, the often overlooked third character in the parable does.
If you would like help learning to love in all circumstances, in learning to be vulnerable but not a doormat, in learning to laugh with your kids and enjoy moments of getting to watch them alone so much of the time, I would love to hear from you!
