When we think about the situation of our children and how they affect become children of single mothers often accept being humiliated and battered by her father or some family, just wanting to lend a father figure. We make too many "sacrifices " on behalf of our children, but the result is the same. Make things worse.
The first step we must take is to take control. Taking control of our lives will make us to make better decisions and thus we show our children as mothers they have. Stop worrying about the father figure. Many times the search for the father figure is actually the search for a partner for you.
Fret for the mother figure that you give your child that if it is your responsibility. We determine the character of our children. If you are a mother who leaves abuse, humiliate and disenfranchised then then you know what the future of your child.
The education of our children depends on us. We can not leave it strange that someone or knows or cares about your welfare. At most will spend with your son or daughter 20 or 25 years of his life and then form your home and will have to leave your side. So you have to take their first years to be with him and accompanied at this stage of his life.
Do not be afraid to speak the truth. Although sometimes the answer may hurt at the time, always will be best for him and for you. Especially if it makes you difficult questions and respond with wisdom and sincerity.

But have an answer about it and then set a later date or time, that will help you save time but you know the subject or do not know how to approach
Trust him. Give him his space and let you develop your own privacy, but always stay connected and aware of what he does. When you've given a good education the NIO know what to do on their own and take good decisions, that is why it is important to stem the example you give, not what you say, but what you see.
Seek help and advice when deciding something important is difficult. It is very easy to make poor decisions when emotions are altered. is better to have a neutral opinion and reliable, it can be a trusted friend, a friend who has shown that it is, a book, Internet or any other resource.
Single parenthood is not a crime, nor are the first nor the only. There are many like you and we all have the same doubts and fears.
Like it or not, your child will copy all of you. Up to you, what you give to copy.
Animo! The first step is difficult but necessary and worthwhile.
Taking control is not a magic act that will make all problems disappear. Know that it will be hard and sometimes you'll want to throw in the towel, you will feel tired and depressed. Sometimes things will get worse and you may not feel it is worth continuing. REJOICE !!!... recalls that when the night is darker, is that the dawn is near. Only a little more resistant.
To encourage you just embrace your child, play and laugh with him. Look at his eyes and see that the trusts you, you're their only hope and refuge in this world.

The UN Convention on the rights of persons with disabilities
The Convention has been updated the rights of persons with disabilities, ensuring their full enjoyment. At the same time it matches people with disabilities with the rest of the people, recognizing their difference.
Next to this we have that the Convention is the result of a political negotiation, with the incomplete which may even have been some points to be resolved, as the regulation of certain areas and inequality in care receiving different rights.
The end result is that the Convention emphasizes the interdependence, shuffling dependence and autonomy. The autonomy is important, but it is also established (personal, family, social...) support systems for persons with disabilities.
However, probably, much to legislate, not we will have reached the level of equality for these people, until there is a social sense of solidarity towards them, which would be the most important to achieve in these subjects aim.

Different knowledge
In this sense, it is essential to have instruments of evaluation for different types of knowledge, which is would be a source of information to determine what problems could be solved thanks to them. It is also interesting to have tools that will help us to identify the non-scientific knowledge that could be applied in education and innovation.

First steps in the acquisition of language
Since the born, the child comes into contact with the language. At first he is not aware of it, but then realizes his existence and begins to become involved in it. Listen to, and then try to imitate the sounds he heard, with what we are witnessing the beginnings of the acquisition of the language. Since that time I start the process of acquisition and learning the mother tongue and the language, in general.The child learns the language in two ways: by imitation and creatively. By imitation comes into contact with different forms of speech. Creativity allows you to make abstraction of the common elements in these talk and, thus, progress in their learning of the language, basically by analogy. By imitation, the child learns words and phrases; Thanks to their creativity, you can get to invent them.
With the complicity of the adult, the child continues learning. Adult brings a number of behaviors that help as: baby language, feedback, and the contribution of the environment.¿In what is the baby language? It is the way of speaking that adopts the adult before a baby. Its features are: slow the phrase emission; use of finished phrases; simplification lexical, making it dominate the concrete terms: the presence of the subject in sentences, although it is unnecessary; employment of construction in the third person. Intonation, phrases end up in anticipation and the syllables are pronounced separate and Sung. Thus, the adult, especially the mother, but also family members, introduces children to the language.
The feedback is that the adult repeats the correct phrases, as confirming the child either correctly repeats a phrase that the child has constructed evil. Also the feedback occurs when there are expansions and extensions. In the expansions, the adult, to repeat the phrase of the child, added linguistic elements of limited information, such as articles, etc. In the extensions is extended the sentence, adding new semantic elements.
The environmental contribution takes place when the child attends preschool or watch TV. Finally, when it comes to the school, the teachers are added to this influence, as well as adults with which it interacts.
