“Being a single mother is a whole lot [of work]. No kid deserves to be raised by just one parent, and kids are costly. However, I want single mothers to know that God provides.”

The inspiring woman said she never wanted to paint the father of her son in a bad light through her work and believes that everyone makes mistakes and deserves forgiveness:

“I am not taking [him to] maintenance court. If you want to take the father to court, then it’s okay. Just pray that you reach a more conducive decision for the child and that your cooperation is healthy.”

Fikile ends by saying that her book can be purchased online, on Takealot, or Amazon.
