New Women's Magazine Dropkicks Single Mom Stereotypes

Online, April 28, 2011 (Newswire.com) - There are over 11 million single mothers in the United States. Media, political, and educational circles would have you believe that they are uneducated, uncouth, and unworthy of notice. On the contrary, many are successful, thriving businesswomen, and 61% have earned a bachelor's degree or more. Single moms are not just the misguided teens of reality tv - almost 60% are professional women over 30 years old. On May 1, 2011, a new lifestyle magazine directed at professional single moms launched online. The publication offers practical ways for single mothers to take time out for themselves, enjoy spa days, start and run businesses, and travel with their children (or without them!)

SOLOMOMLIFE Magazine fills a glaring void in women's magazines that has persisted for many years. Although there are wonderful examples of publications in print and online that speak to women in general and mothers specifically, single mothers as a primary audience have been largely neglected. There are fantastic blogs and community sites that cater to various parts of the single mom's experience, and the magazine editor plans to feature those talented women often on the site. In general, however, single mothers are a rapidly growing portion of the US population that is ignored by media outlets and advertisers alike.

SOLOMOMLIFE Magazine addresses these hard-working, resilient, unsupported and yet successful women with features, informational pieces, and entertainment highlights that speak to the lives they lead as women and as single mothers. For those who struggle, it offers resources and connections to accessing the assistance they need. For those who are riding the waves of success, SOLOMOMLIFE invites them to mentor and support their sisters so that they may ALL live their best lives for themselves - and for their children.
