The objective is to present, through the report, the reality of single mothers without a support network. A report deals with the comparison between single mothers who did not receive any type of reception and a single mother who has full reception and support from family and friends, even though she is a single mother, and how the support network can influence life and its meaning in building the family. Through interviews with single mothers, judges, lawyers, doctors, psychologists and social workers, single motherhood and the lack of a support network can be seen, which can affect the mother's self-esteem and quality of life in terms of mental health. as well as any communication factor.
