Guilt for your child not having two bio parents will eventually cripple them by making them unaccountable, excusmaking for them and lead to spoiling. That is not preparation for the real world. And if you don't have the ability to understand that your child precious child has the ability to act out and be unruly like everyone else and get sensitive just because and boyfriend or girlfriend has a input on your child's actions. Then you don't need to be dating. If someone who is trying to find a life partner with some with kids can't even comment on a disrespectful action your child has made with out you getting defensive then stop dating. Why ? You partner is going to be dealing with you and your kids not just you.

Reason #2 for not dating men with minor-age children. I couldn't deal with that.

I'd rather not date a person with kids period, but the reality is is that most people in their late 30's and beyond had/have kids.


Date a woman with a 7 yr old, naw, not happening for me, and then add bratty on top of it, double naw.
