Hi, hoping you can help me. I am writing a book on parenting and mental health. I am especially looking at why so many families break up in the first 2 years and the link to mental health. I have an anonymous 3 minute multiple choice Google Form survery for single mums, single dads and parents who are still together. If anyone (especially those still together) could fill it on I would be so greatful. Relevant links are below;

nc1013 · 13/01/2023 20:49

I'd be happy to do it but the links aren't working

Thank you so so much to everyone who has filled in my survey. I am only at 4000 words so far and I am doing this whilst being a single mum so bear with me but I would love to post the link to the finished book. So grateful to you all :)

Done, good luck! I'm working on my master's dissertation at the moment so understand how valuable it is to get responses.

I completed the survey. A bit tricky as I broke up with the father of my 34yo daughter when she was a baby and then split from my husband who was the father of my second and third children after 23 years.

poppy8989 · 16/01/2023 02:49

All completed ✔️

Oopsiedaisyy · 16/01/2023 07:06

Done. I have two children so would be useful to be able to select more than one age for children? I used the other box

Figrolls14 · 16/01/2023 07:59

done 👍

Onesecondofsummer · 16/01/2023 09:26

Done. Good luck with it all.

Orangebadger · 16/01/2023 09:33

Done!

LadyGardenersQuestionTime · 16/01/2023 09:37

I'm not with my children's father any more but didnt leave until they were teenagers. Which survey do I do?

Grabbing2023ByTheBalls · 16/01/2023 09:43

Done!

The only issue I noticed was the question:

'Have you or your partner tried therapy / counselling?'

I could only choose one answer, even though we both had counselling individually that wasn't one of the options.

Twentytwenty3 · 16/01/2023 09:51

Completed (still together)

Katia2511 · 16/01/2023 10:15

Done! Good luck with the book

ABlindAssassin · 16/01/2023 11:05

Completed. Some of the questions are difficult to answer as more than one option is applicable. E.g. I have been a SAHM, PT working parent and a FT working parent at various points.
