A friend of mine just got divorced and is now a single parent?

We aren't terribly close, but I do consider her a friend. Well, she has a one year old and he is the most awesome kid I've ever seen, he's quiet and well behaved. His jerk-*** father is signing away his parental rights which leaves her high and dry, by the way I really hate the guy. Well, she lives with her parents right now and is working a menial and I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas on how I could show my support as a friend.A friend of mine just got divorced and is now a single parent?
Just be there if she needs to talk or if she needs a shoulder to cry on that's a friends job!A friend of mine just got divorced and is now a single parent?
Friends support each other. Be there for her when she wants to talk about what's going on in her life and her problems, but resist the urge to try and fix things unless she directly asks for your help. Also, don't be afraid to talk to her about what's going on in your life and your problems. Let her be there for you, too. You also might try babysitting for her once in a while if she's willing. It's very hard trying to take care of a young child being a single parent, and everyone could use a break from the responsibility. Hope this helps. Good luck.
offer to help with the child babysitting for a few hours so she can take care of herself, primping or chores. You could also take her out to just get away for a few hours so she doesnt feel like she's being pulled in all directions and that she still is a wonderful individual and you appreciate that. good luck
Maybe donate some money to her or help her raise the kid...Like maybe take the kid out to go somewhere for walks or something while she's working.
