Family represents the primary community of our society. Since ancient times it has been considered that the ideal type of family consist of a father, who supports family financially, mother whose only role is household and childbearing, and of course a child or children. As society develops, this type of family slowly fades and different types of families appear. So today a nuclear family still exists, but there are also an extended family, partners who are not married, family with two generations, homosexual communities and single parents. A single-parent family transpires when one of the spouses dies stops caring about their child or spouses divorce. One of the biggest concerns of single parents is financial difficulty. Research has shown that single parents describes that they are often faced with depression, very exhausted, under a lot of stress and often gets lonely. Many stereotypes are linked to single parenthood but sometimes their biggest problem is the lack of understanding of the society about their life situation. In this paper, single parents are defined, from statistical data to the cause of single parent families and the problems single mothers and single fathers are faced with. Furthermore, it is described a behavior of children from a single parent families and the co-operation between kindergarten teacher and a single parent. Society got used to seeing a mother with a child (since mothers are still considered responsible for child upbringing), so single mothers do not cause society's astonishment. On the other hand, single fathers continue to make a stigmatized group that the society is not yet fully accustomed to. Children of single parents, due to parent’s divorce or death, go through various crises and at that point kindergarten teachers and educators represents child’s person of trust.
