The game should be played by 4 players. Each player must choose a "player" (Single Black Mother, Single White Mother, Single Black Father, or Single White Father) and roll the dice. "Single White Father" will be the one to start the game. To play, each participant must roll the dice and move his/her piece to the corresponding square. In each square there is a scenario that single parents face. The quare gives how negative or positive the scenario affects your "player" in society. Move how ever many spaces the square tells you to. Once everyone goes in the round, repeat. The "player" who reaches the "finish line" first, despite society's actions and pereptions toward them wins.
