"As politicians, we owe it to ourselves to adapt to changing societies and to take into account the new needs and issues that are appearing. That is precisely what this own-initiative report does. There are more and more single women with responsibility for one or more children who find themselves in vulnerable situations, in poverty or socially excluded, which also have repercussions for their children. This is the reality that we must deal with: above all, equal treatment must be guaranteed. The fact of having a child and raising it alone must not be an additional handicap for these women who most frequently suffer, rather than choose, this situation. It is important that Member States exchange good practices. Single mothers must have support for access to employment via training policies and measures that facilitate a work-life balance. This means allowing them to be financially independent and to escape from poverty. From the start of my career, I have fought for women’s rights and equal treatment. This report is one more step in this direction."@en1
