Single Moms Aren't Stupid details the shocking, inspiring events that propelled her journey to become a tenant advocate.

The end of the world begins as literal fire rains down from the heavens. Ancient gods are released from their prison, eager to reestablish their long-lost power.

Max is one of the one-in-three children in America being raised without a father in the home. Among African Americans, that number is reported to be as high as 72 percent. To help fill the father-shaped hole in Max's life as he transitioned from boyhood to manhood, MaryAnne invited four men from different corners of her life - an engineer, a philanthropist, a publisher, and a financial planner - to become Max's mentors.

Hundreds of thousands of fans flock to the PTWM blog and Facebook page purely because Rachaele is genuine and incredibly honest and has created a supportive online community where parents (and non-parents) can go for respite. Her message is clear: not everyone is a perfect mum with a nice house, a steady marriage and 2.5 children. We lead messy, complicated lives. For Rachaele, blogging is about shining a light on very real ups and downs (from having fun with your beautiful kids and watching them grow to meltdowns, domestic violence, bullying and more).

Being a single mother has its ups and downs. I enjoy being there every day watching my children grow, have fun, learn, and most importantly apply what they are learning. I can't/won't take all of the credit when it comes to molding them as it takes a village and I'm grateful for mine.

Year after year, I wasted time because I did not understand time management. As I began a journey of self-discovery and understanding, I began to realize that my daily structure was not organized. The occurrences of the day began to dictate my day, which forced me to be reactive. I could not continue to live like this. I knew I had to make a change quick.

Her reporting led to a surprising and uplifting lesson about life, love and the choices we make.
