The report, presented this January, analyzes <strong data-start=\"1050\" data-end=\"1111\">the impact of the lack of conciliation in the mental health<\/strong> of this mostly female group and warns that <strong data-start=\"1174\" data-end=\"1256\">the insularity and the high cost of living in Ibiza intensify the problem<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1259\" data-end=\"1682\">The work, entitled <em data-start=\"1280\" data-end=\"1414\">Analysis of the impact of the lack of reconciliation on the mental health of women who head single-parent families in the Balearic Islands<\/em>, was carried out during 2025 using <strong data-start=\"1449\" data-end=\"1546\">a mixed methodology combining surveys and interviews in Mallorca, Menorca and the Pitiusas<\/strong>, including <strong data-start=\"1560\" data-end=\"1569\">Ibiza<\/strong>, where several participants report <strong data-start=\"1606\" data-end=\"1681\">a daily pressure that directly affects their emotional well-being<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1689\" data-end=\"1720\">Chronic overload and stress<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1722\" data-end=\"2092\">One of the main findings of the study is that <strong data-start=\"1774\" data-end=\"1847\">50.7% of the women surveyed say they feel stress very often<\/strong>, while <strong data-start=\"1862\" data-end=\"1923\">28.8% admit to suffering from anxiety with the same frequency<\/strong>. In addition, <strong data-start=\"1933\" data-end=\"2041\">88.2% consider that single parenthood significantly influences their ability to reconcile work and family life<\/strong>, with negative consequences for their mental health. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2094\" data-end=\"2472\">In qualitative interviews, <strong data-start=\"2127\" data-end=\"2272\">a mother living in Ibiza explains that &#8220;the constant pressure affects my mood, my energy level and my daily mental health&#8221;,<\/strong> a testimony that reflects <strong data-start=\"2300\" data-end=\"2374\">a situation shared by many women raising children alone on the island<\/strong> and who are forced to combine work, care and housework without sufficient support.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"2479\" data-end=\"2528\">Reconciling work and family, an obstacle course<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2530\" data-end=\"2938\">Difficulties in reconciling work and family life appear as <strong data-start=\"2600\" data-end=\"2657\">one of the main factors of emotional exhaustion<\/strong>. According to the report, <strong data-start=\"2677\" data-end=\"2779\">88% of women consider that their single-parent status seriously alters their work-life balance<\/strong>, and <strong data-start=\"2783\" data-end=\"2886\">32.8% state that it is &#8220;very difficult&#8221; for them to organize family and work responsibilities<\/strong>, compared to only <strong data-start=\"2902\" data-end=\"2937\">11.8% who consider it easy.<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2940\" data-end=\"3391\">In this context, <strong data-start=\"2958\" data-end=\"2994\">the lack of labor flexibility<\/strong>, described as &#8220;not at all flexible&#8221; by <strong data-start=\"3032\" data-end=\"3063\">41.5% of respondents<\/strong>, and <strong data-start=\"3067\" data-end=\"3099\">the insufficient support network<\/strong> aggravate the situation. In Ibiza, these difficulties are accentuated by <strong data-start=\"3173\" data-end=\"3253\">the seasonality of employment and the high price of care services<\/strong>, which leads to <strong data-start=\"3274\" data-end=\"3326\">40.6% having resorted to medication to sleep<\/strong>, showing <strong data-start=\"3341\" data-end=\"3390\">high levels of insomnia associated with stress<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"3398\" data-end=\"3436\">Direct impact on mental health<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"3438\" data-end=\"3761\">The study found that <strong data-start=\"3462\" data-end=\"3548\">the psychological impact of single parenthood is profound and sustained over time<\/strong>. Among the most frequent emotions are <strong data-start=\"3594\" data-end=\"3607\">stress<\/strong>, <strong data-start=\"3609\" data-end=\"3651\">psychological and emotional exhaustion<\/strong>, which is &#8220;very high&#8221; for <strong data-start=\"3676\" data-end=\"3688\">40.6%<\/strong>, and <strong data-start=\"3692\" data-end=\"3710\">frustration<\/strong>, mentioned by <strong data-start=\"3727\" data-end=\"3739\">55.8%<\/strong> of the participants. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3763\" data-end=\"4251\">To cope with this situation, <strong data-start=\"3799\" data-end=\"3857\">57.2% have turned to mental health professionals<\/strong>, such as psychologists, psychiatrists or primary care. However, many women recognize <strong data-start=\"3947\" data-end=\"3989\">the lack of time for self-care<\/strong>, as another participant in the study pointed out: <strong data-start=\"4034\" data-end=\"4118\">&#8220;It is not possible for me to go to the gym or have a coffee with friends without worries&#8221;,<\/strong> a reality especially visible in <strong data-start=\"4158\" data-end=\"4181\">environments such as Ibiza<\/strong>, where work-life balance depends largely on economic resources. <\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"4258\" data-end=\"4304\">Lack of knowledge and limited access to support<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"4306\" data-end=\"4637\">Regarding public policies, <strong data-start=\"4342\" data-end=\"4444\">53.7% of women say they have never had preferential access to work-life balance resources<\/strong>, and <strong data-start=\"4448\" data-end=\"4525\">46.7% feel poorly informed about their rights and assistance in the Balearic Islands.<\/strong> Even so, <strong data-start=\"4536\" data-end=\"4636\">63.8% consider that studies such as this one are very relevant to improve public policies<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4639\" data-end=\"5031\">Among the most highly valued measures is <strong data-start=\"4680\" data-end=\"4781\">the 26-week parental leave for single-parent families in the public administration<\/strong>, which <strong data-start=\"4787\" data-end=\"4826\">61.1% rate as very positive<\/strong>, although they call <strong data-start=\"4844\" data-end=\"4925\">for an extension, more flexible hours and affordable care services<\/strong>, especially needed on <strong data-start=\"4955\" data-end=\"4975\">islands such as Ibiza<\/strong>, where access to these resources is more limited.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"5038\" data-end=\"5079\">Insularity and structural inequality<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"5081\" data-end=\"5458\">The report stresses that <strong data-start=\"5104\" data-end=\"5207\">insularity, the high cost of living and the seasonal nature of work intensify the inequalities<\/strong> affecting single-parent families in the Balearic Islands. According to data from the island councils, <strong data-start=\"5302\" data-end=\"5414\">between 92% and 95% of single-parent families with a valid card in 2024 are headed by women<\/strong>, a figure well above the state average. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5460\" data-end=\"5739\">In this context, the participants call for <strong data-start=\"5505\" data-end=\"5605\">more institutional support to prevent situations of social exclusion and structural violence<\/strong>, a demand that, according to the association promoting the study, is especially urgent in <strong data-start=\"5700\" data-end=\"5738\">stressed territories such as Ibiza<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"5746\" data-end=\"5797\">&#8220;A double shift that puts your health at risk.&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"5799\" data-end=\"6350\">The president of the <em data-start=\"5819\" data-end=\"5878\">Associaci\u00f3 de Fam\u00edlies Monoparentals de les Illes Balears<\/em>, <strong data-start=\"5880\" data-end=\"5900\">Catalina Servera<\/strong>, summarizes the conclusions of the report by pointing out that <strong data-start=\"5952\" data-end=\"6066\">&#8220;single-parent women in the Balearic Islands are burdened with a double working day that puts their mental health at risk&#8221;.<\/strong> In her opinion, the study <strong data-start=\"6092\" data-end=\"6131\">diagnoses a structural problem<\/strong> and proposes <strong data-start=\"6142\" data-end=\"6193\">concrete recommendations for the Balearic Government<\/strong>, such as <strong data-start=\"6200\" data-end=\"6349\">more labor flexibility, development of the Balearic Law of conciliation, preferential access to care services and co-responsibility campaigns<\/strong>.
