If someone dated you because they want a mother/father for their children, would that make you hesitant to go further in dating? And why/why not?
Hell yes it would make me hesitant because it's not my responsibility to be a parent to someone's child because they don't want to do it anymore...really that's the main reason.One shouldn't go looking to date ONLY because they want to have a parent for their kid or kids.That is really insulting to the other person who probably wouldn't even have a clue as to what they're doing.There is nothing wrong with dating someone who is a single parent IF their heart is in the right place.

My mother made this mistake far too many times and ended up with very low quality men. Ladies, make sure this dude is good for you, then make sure he is also good to your kids.

Not if they were primarily looking for someone to support them (and children).
I would consider dating a person who just happens to be a single-mother. Previous relationship was with a single mother. You will never ever be the "center of her world"..... children take priority. You have to accept and the relationship has to be worth the extra effort... or move on.

This is very true. I find it hard to date a man with young children. It's extremely demanding of their time.I can make it work though, plus I'm a teacher/mom myself.My son will be driving soon so I'm pass that stage.
