Remind yourself that you cannot control how others act. The only thing you can control is your own actions and responses.

Weed out the negatives. Love yourself, and every time you find a perceived flaw in yourself, improve yourself.

If your child has other caregivers, talk to them about how you expect your child to be disciplined.

Even if you are single, you still have so much to appreciate. Being single is not the end of the world.
