This edited volume addresses how single mothers and fathers are
represented in novels, self-help literature, daily newspapers, film
and television, as well as within their own narratives in
interviews on social media. With proportions varying between
countries, the number of single parents has been increasing
steadily since the 1970s in the Western world. Contributions to
this volume analyse how various societies respond to these parents
and family forms. Through a range of materials, methodologies and
national perspectives, chapters make up three sections to cover
single mothers, single fathers and solo mothers (single women who
became parents through assisted reproductive technologies). The
authors reveal that single parenthood is divided along the lines of
gender and socioeconomic status, with age, sexuality and the reason
for being a single parent coming into play. Chapter 11 is available
open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International
