There is no place in this world for a single mum without a job. Oh! Why did I ever get married! Why did I have kids? Why did I let myself become trapped like this? ... it seemed to me my life was ruined and I would never ever amount to anything. I have become my mother! I wailed. I was broken. This is the true story of Bette Boyanton, a woman who struggled to overcome the disadvantages of poverty lack of education, inequality and poor health, to become an inspiring social reformer and political activist.
