Dating a person with kids ( Archived) (23)

thanks guys, you have given me hope that there is a good man out there for me somewhere. i mite come to the States then

hi kaths, in my opinion that is I would date someone that has kids because I have two teenagers. But whenever on dating sites I request the ages if they have kids to be 15 or older because this way it is known and later on down the line he cannot tell you he was not aware.And meeting someone elsewhere I would bring the subject up early in the conversation because why waist your time if hes not interested.And never give up hope.
Hope this helped and good luck to you.

I would happily welcome a man's kids into my life, that wouldnt bother me at all. My kids all have special needs so they can be pretty full on sometimes. It would take one heck of a man to handle them, let alone me. I can be pretty independant, I heard that scares men off.

Hey Kath I would prefer an independant women rather then a clingy one. Just as long as she aint isolating her self away from others.

Only if they are teens or out on their own. I dated a woman in her mid 40's who had two daughters on their own and she also had two young'ns, ages 5 and 6 who were surprises. They were hellions. Won't go that route again

I would date a man who has children yes. I find you can tell a lot by the person your with when they have children by how they treat them and devote their times with them.

Tracy :o)

i have 2 year old daughter, i getting divorce soon.. have her living with me..always thought that being single father might scare ladies away, probley thought they might have to do some work, being deaf father has it challage but also reward. my thought is that. i always let them know that my daughter comes first and see what goes.. maybe i am wrong to think that way

I personally think that women are attracted to Fathers because they seem to be grown up and more responsible. My kids will always come first no matter what, even though they drive me insane most of the time.

ladies,ladies you think it is hard being a woman with children,now don't take me wrong for i am not taking away any thing from you nor am i disrespecting you in anyway.for every single mother out there she has and always will have my upmost respect for they have being doing it and being doing it well since the beginning of time and she will be doing it to the end of tiem.for it takes a special woman to do it,for not all woman can do it.so yes you have my upmost respect and thank you i was bought up by my mom.but getting back to the question yes it is hard being a single parent with children and trying to find someone who wants to take the time to see the person behind the children.to find someone who will be right for your children and you,someone who you can trust around your children and yourself.but my hat is off to you.but try to be a single father with 5 children and see how fast they run away when they first see those 5 children stnding there looking at them. some even said hell no don't even think about it and all i wanted to know is how to get some place.where i went my children went with me,my children would walk in front of me and i would walk behind them carrying my baby in my arms.i have to admit i had,had some fun while the was growing up.now think about this you are sitting in a emergency pregnancy center waiting room waiting to go back.you are sitting there minding your own business when the door opens but you cannot see who is out in the hallway.in walks a little boy and he just stands there,than walks in another boy and he stands next the other 1,but you still cannot see out in the hallway.walks in a little girl and she stands next to the boys,than another little girl and she stand next to the children,they are just standing there not saying a word.you know they are brothers and sisters cause they look like.now you are sitting there minding your own bussiness watching those 4 children as they are looking at you.the door is still open and you cannot see out in the hallway.now most people when they see children they will think a woman is with them.you are not prepare for what walks in the room,but a man holding a baby and you know he is their father cause they look like him.so here you are in shock a man with 5 children you are asking yourself what in the heck is going on.but nothing prepares you for what is about to happen.a nurse comes out from the back and ask the man id she could help him.you notice the man has a smile on his face.he looks at the nurses and says i need a pregnancy test for i think i am pregnant.the next thing you know you are on the floor and you look around and notice so won't alot of other people for you could not believe what the man said and he is still standing there with a smile on his face.the nurse comes back and brings out another nurse and she ask him can she help him and he tells her the same thing.than she walks back and brings out someone else and he tells her the same thing.they all are standing there looking at him and he is standing there smiling at them.than they ask everyone if they take him back and find out what he wants.a couple of minutes goes by and the nurse comes back out.someone ask her what does the man wants.she looks around the room and saids you are not going to believe it but he is taking care of those 5 children by his self.once again you find yourself on the floor for again you could not believe what you just heard

I have the upmost respect for you. But what annoys me is when people see a single mother, 9 times out of 10 people will say "oh she's a lazy single mother who just wants welfare" but if its a single Dad then everyone praises them for looking after their kids.

Like I said I respect you and good on you for being a great Dad, there should be more like you.
