Parents Without Partners.org (PWP) is an International, Non-Profit, Educational Organization Devoted to the Interests of Single Parents and Their Children.
"The problems are many in bringing up our children alone..." begins the web site. My experience with divorce, separation, kidnapping of the children, and a long history of false allegations against me are not easy to share with most people. What I enjoy about this non-profit group is they are a bunch of people who actually understand what I've been through. I go regularly to the PWP monthly picnic in beautiful Kewalo Basin-- Diamond Head to the East and the sunset in the West-- the second Saturday of each month. Sometimes members bring guitars and ukuleles. Sometimes we play bingo, but always we sit and talk story over good food. My kids--for the short time that I did have visitation with them--developed friendships with other kids of divorce and broken homes. The single parents of PWP quickly became my friends. They understand more about me and my children than my family or any psychologists that I ever spoken with. The message is clear.
Look for a chapter in your area. Join them at their many "Let's Eat Out (LEO)" gatherings. Talk story and let them help you get your life back together.
