I would never get involved with someone who told me, "They are my kids not yours...you have no say in the matter." People fool themselves into thinking that it's okay and everything will be happily ever after, when that is hardly ever the case. Kids will play the parents on all sides and thru the middle if you don't have a plan.
Whatever you are going through, I wish you well.![Smilie :smile: :smile:](/styles/somd_smilies/smile.gif)
I'm probably not in the norm, but my husband and I cleaned this issue to the bone before settling in together. Kids can make and break a relationship. It takes two strong people not to let them ruin it. Not to say that it's always easy, sometimes it's he!!.Originally posted by Old Dog
How much time does anyone really spend discussing childrearing with any future mate?
