"Unfortunately, single mothers are often a neglected demographic group, even though 5% of women in the European Union currently belong to this group.
These women have been particularly hard hit during the current economic crisis. To be able to provide the financial support required to bring up their children, they very often have to go without rest or medical care. We cannot be indifferent to our citizens who are experiencing hardship. I would like to stress the need to grant not only additional unemployment benefits for each child, but also priority access to affordable housing. Furthermore, I believe that single mothers should be offered flexible employment opportunities at EU, national and local level to enable them to achieve a work-life balance."@en1
