In Saudi Arabia, the number of female-headed families has increased dramatically during the past four decades, and the likelihood of a woman becoming a female-headed parent is unquestionably affected by cultural and social influences. This qualitative study aimed to identify the social constraints faced by femaleheaded parents from the point of view of social constructivist feminism, as well as the techniques by which they were able to adapt to these constraints. This study was conducted in Saudi Arabia with 14 participants. It used semi-structured interviews, and two research questions guided the study: (1) What are the most important social constraints encountered by female single parents? (2) How do female-headed parents overcome these social constraints? By adopting social constructivist feminist theory, the study identified two main social constraints that affect female-headed parents in Saudi Arabia; namely, gender stereotypes and the patriarchal system. In addition, it revealed common strategies used by female-headed parentism adapting to these constraints, such as thinking positively, enhancing their self-confidence, and advocating female singleparent autonomy. Based on these results, the researcher makes a number of recommendations.
