Single mothers facing social problems and family care responsibilities

Single mothers receive very little social support. They must struggle with financial problems, child-rearing, and emotional issues, which affect both their own health and well-being and that of their children. However, single mothers themselves do not expect to receive support. Almost all single mothers must financially support and help their children. Assistance from the child's father or husband is very rare, even though under the Family Law, child-rearing expenses can be claimed from the child's father. Yet no single mother has filed a lawsuit to obtain such money, indicating that in Thailand's gender system, women are expected to be solely responsible for caring for children if the relationship ends.
