Have You Learned Anything About Single Mums Rights

It's become evident that in America, the one big thing that will undermine your future is not a handicap, drug addiction, or illness, but believe it or not, being a single mum. Single mothers might land in this category through divorce, death, or by choice, but these are not the essential reasons why a lone mother loses earning power. The main reason for this is because of an elementary bias and prejudice in American business that removes single mums rights, and discriminates brazenly against them.

Many single mums have been too exhausted and over worked to take note this trend, but now this is gearing up to be the main element in the fight for single mums rights. We live in a society that demands that in order to be successful we must emulate our peers, get better jobs, work hard to earn more money so that we can send our kids to college. However, this only works if you are married.

Being a single mother, the perception is that you could be a business risk, and in a few states, it is fair to ask for the marital status of a job applicant, and find out how many kids there are. Business owners claim this allows them to avoid employing single mothers, and therefore dodge paying health care costs for their kids. Or, if they do happen to employ them, to deliberately pay them less to make up for anticipated health care expenses. But, because it is allowable by law, this is not seen as discrimination. Single mums rights groups throughout the country are challenging the legality of this kind of practice.

Single mothers were asked to get off welfare and rejoin the workforce, but the workforce is actually biased against them. Plenty of single moms work more than ten hours a day to provide for their young ones, with minimal help from the state or deadbeat dads. Yet, they are given less money than single or married women, provided that they are hired in the first place. They have hardly any support and have to engage someone to care for the children when they are working. If they become ill, the situation becomes acute, both in terms of income and care for the kids.

A past government census return showed that over 10 million single mothers live in America. Many of these single mothers are starting to band together locally to help fight for single mums rights. Child care centers, counseling and financial advice are some of the advantages there are to being a club member. Other single moms are petitioning members of congress to revoke laws that make it acceptable to ask for a mother's marital status or if she has children. Right throughout America, there are locally based support groups of single mothers that are fighting for single mums rights, so that all single mothers like themselves, will find justice in the workplace.
