How I Overcame The Ups And Downs Of Single Parenting.

Whatever may lead to it, Single parenting is very detrimental to children even though this  should not be the case. During the initial period, I found it very agonizing and nearly led chaotic lifestyle.

However if you have support group that you are active in, the group could consist of friends and family members or good counselors, your problems may become minimized.

As a single parent I faced many emotional and practical problems. I had to coordinate seemingly endless tasks and responsibilities, ensure the security of the children and maintain their physical and mental health.

There is no simple way for one person to accomplish so much. However, I tried as much as possible to
physche myself for  the daunting tasks ahead. I did not want to complain about having a  chaotic life style due to single parenting. I did not fall into the trap of working too hard to put food on the table to the detriment of having to spend little time with the children. Even though, it then seemed that the loss of a partner to share in the care of the children could be detrimental.

I came to realise that single parenting provided me with an unique opportunity to influence the
development my children without the hindrance that having a partner can often bring. I never allowed
myself to be bogged down by the  practicalities of raising the children alone, I believed that the benefits were far outweigh the disadvantages.

As the children grew in age, I allowed them to help make family decisions. We established household
routine. They were assigned the tasks that were commiserate with their respective ages. I never said anything bad about their mother. I communicated openly and honestly with the children.

I grew much closer to my children and we developed stronger bond to the benefit of all of us. I discovered that the children became matured early and developed  greater sense of responsibility. I found it much easier to establish guidelines and rules for the children without having to debate them with a partner.

Interestingly enough.my children never had detrimental effects in terms of both their personal and educational development. The loss of a partner also put to an end to our frequent disagreements, arguments and tension that were always the order of the day ha in our household.

How Great Is The Hobby Of Stamp Collecting?.

How Great Is The Hobby Of Stamp Collecting?. Indeed there is no doubt about stamp collecting being
the Greatest Hobby On Earth.         

What is Stamp Collecting or Philately?.. Stamp Collecting or Philately as it is called is the pursuit of collecting, arranging and studying postage stamps, stamped envelopes and other items used in various Countries of the World at different times to effect prepayment of letters through the Post.    

Stamp Collecting unlike games of football, cricket and squash-racket is a pastime that attracts not only
the interests of adults but children alike. Kings, Queens, the rich and the poor.

It is a mistaken belief to regard Stamp Collecting as only Children Hobby.It may interest you to learn that participation at certain stages of the hobby are very much beyond the capacities of children as would their participation in test cricket matches etc.

Stamp Collecting or Philately is the study of stamps, their production. It has developed into two broad
groups - those who collect and study stamps and those who collect stamps as souvenirs.

A new collector may not be sure of what kind of stamps to collect. It is however advisable that he
should acquire and study as many different stamps as he can because the experience gained will help
him to grasp the fundamentals of the subject.

Later on, he can decide upon concentrating on a single country's issues or those of a group. To
engage in this hobby, physical condition is of no vital importance as very little actual physical energy
is required to carry it on and money does not always determine the value of a collection to its owner.

Often no money at all is involved except perhaps for an album and stamp collecting accessories. A stamp off a letter from a foreign country can be of as much value to a true collector as a rare and high-priced stamp might be to on me who can spend hundreds of us$ to indulge in his hobby.

Just like any other hobby, the real value of a collection comes from the use made of it by its
owner. A small collection of a few hundred common stamps may give a greater thrill out of having such
a collection than would a rich man who has spent  hundreds of us$ merely to have a 'Display Collection..

Here indeed is a hobby that can be tailored to fit the needs of any individual. One from which almost
endless hours of fun, relaxation, education and pride of ownership can be extracted.

Perhaps the easiest way to 'build' a collection is to exchange one's surplus stamps with other
collectors. This sort of exchange goes on everyday among thousands of collectors worldwide.
