Obviously, they don't.

However, I, personally, do not want to responsible for another person's mistakes. I've managed to not have children out of wedlock. I would expect that my future wife would have the same foresight.

Nothing wrong with that. Water seeks its own level (metaphorically speaking).

Not all single moms have children out of wedlock, geez. You seem to be fixated on one segment.

They still get divorced, which, imo, is no bueno. I don't believe in no-fault divorce.

If there was a good reason for the divorce (cheating, etc), then I'd re-evaluate by opinion. But if they just got divorced because they felt like it for no apparent reason, then it's almost as bad as having children out of wedlock (as far as I'm concerned).

Granted, it's not a really good sample to qualify this with, but it seems they are better looking than their childless counterparts on OLD sites. Some guy had to think one was hot enough to procreate with.

My point was that you won't be a priority until the dog dies and the kids move out.

My opinion. If that's ok then by all means get with a single mom.

most dating moms wont introduce you to the kids for a while anyways...unless they are just looking for a babydaddy

but until they do, expect some obstacles...like infrequent dates (baby sitters aren't cheap, and they cancel)...and once you DO meet the kids, plan on most of your dates INCLUDING them...so the initial romantic candle light dinners and sex at your place will turn into afternoon Disney movies and bouncy houses...which is why personally I would probably not date a mom long term unless I had kids..

if you have kids and so does she it could be a match made in heaven

I could see them as being a bit more forgiving than their childless counterparts out of desperation. That's really all I can come up with.
