No,  there is nothing wrong with being a single parent.  However it might be a good idea to have good support from perhaps a trusted friend or relative.  Weigh the pros and cons,  why not make a list of people whom you can call on for help when needed, whether for child care,  transportation, home maintenance,  or emotional support.

Remember this,  "Raising children alone is not easy especially when they reach the teenage years and feel the world's pressure to rebel against their parents".   

Suggestions:   Be firm and true to your word and recognize that children need structure and discipline.

A single person can legally adopt a child.

I'm sure any adopted child would be quite happy to have even one adult who will be on his side as he or she grows up.

There's a minimum of two positives right there.
