I am a single mum. I raised my daughter, and she was very listened to.
I'm not a single mum, I am just a mum.
My mum was a single mum on the dole.
I was a really bad single mum. I used to go to the supermarket just for somewhere to go.
You have to pay the bills when you're a single mum.
I was very aware as a young mum that I had to be there and not go off the rails. I would go clubbing, then come home and make breakfast for the baby.
I ended up in Broadmeadows orphanage - I don't know how that happened - whether she gave me up for adoption or the church was responsible. Whatever happened, she was a single mum.
I get a lot of single mum roles - 'It's a Free World' turned out well, so people thought, 'She can be a single mum, Kierston can do that. Or live in a council house - she can do that.'
