Baring psycho religious idiots, do people really use "single parent" as a pejorative? I've only ever considered it an indication of the unique struggles the description entails, not as a judgment on them.
I have heard it. Some people feel better about themselves by looking down on others.
I genuinely don't know anyone that uses it as a pejorative.
I've only seen it used in the pejorative sense when there was also a racial factor. So by people who were racist.
