Christina Aguilera respects single mothers
Christina Aguilera has increased respect for single mothers since she split from husband Jordan Bratman.
The 29-year-old pop star - who has a two-year-old son Max with the music executive - now realizes how tough it is to care for a child alone since she separated from Jordan inOctober.
She said: "My focus first and foremost is my son Max. More power to single moms and those out there doing it."
She added to talk show host Ellen DeGeneres: "At the end of the day, he's the love of my life. I adore him and he's such a character and he's so happy and that's what's most important."
Christina is managing to juggle all her responsibilities as a parent and successful singer and actress, but now builds her daily life around the tot and makes sure she is at home every night to sing him lullabies in bed.
She told TV host Jay Leno: "It's hard just even being a working mom and trying to balance and juggle everything on your plate. But I like to be the first thing [my son Max] wakes up to in the morning and the last thing he goes to bed at night seeing, and singing him his lullabies before bed. It means the world to me to be able to do that."
Although she was raised by just her mother, Shelly, following her parents' divorce, she wants to make sure Max's upbringing is less chaotic. She added: "I grew up in a very chaotic household when I was younger so I want to make sure to instill in him a lot of love."

single moms unite!
She is luckier than a lot of single moms out there, though, because she has financial security.

Just that now that Jordan isn't at home it's tougher to manage everything alone when Max is with her. Which I get, it's different if you're alone at home with a child or if there are two people at home.
She just expresses that she has more respect now for single moms who have to care for their child 24/7 seven days a week.
just waiting patiently for Burlesque tbh
She does have tons of money, and so does Jordan, but things still change and you're parenting separately as well as together.
Would like this comment if could.
i KNEW she'd milk the fuck outta this divorce, lol.
The scandal and Burlesque are the only things keeping her relevant.
All she is saying is that now that Jordan isn't at home it's tougher to manage everything alone when Max is with her. Which I get, it's different if you're alone at home with a child or if there are two people at home.
