Hi. Knowing that there are alot of single parents on here that have trouble being able to make it to our night/weekend meets but would still like to get out as a group, was wondering about a get together for a BBQ in a park or something simple like that. Somewhere the children can play together and adults can relax and get to know each other. I know that this won't be for everyone but I would love any feedback you can give me. Thanks. Larfs.
I know they did this on another singles site, and was a huge hit.
They had it in summer, at a free pool area, near the beach, everyone bought a plate, there were bbq facilities, and some people organised games and such for the kids

Thanks Shell. I hope others make comments with their votes so you can see more about how they feel and what they expect.

Nope! My kid would be bored before we got there, then that would distract my fun time? I love kids, we can race them? But I have a teenager! Miniature adult in the making, well in thinking not in size as she is 5ft10, Then again other peoples parenting skills are far too foreign for my lifestyle, I don’t tech my kid bad habits? Like yelling when you want them to do something or too stop them doing something?
My life is a happy one, I need to find someone that thinks the same way as I do, I have found myself surrounded by negative people in the past, and that just wore me down, I am a survivor, after 21 years of child support and two Exs, I think I deserve a peaceful life, I have become comfortably num,

Is this like a bring & Buy, Or trade and exchange. Heres my kid i'll take that one.
Larf you could start with no kids and be left with a whole football team. It's always a good idea when someone else takes the bull by the horns and organises it. Hope it will be very successful for you larf.
Thanks DD. I was leaning towards a day meet with no kids but thought I'd still ask about taking kids as there are people who struggle to get out to meet people. I will organise one but more than likely without kids. Don't know, we'll see. I was hoping to off load mine.

on another site some years ago, we had a lot of meets, daytime, night time and weekend one, I met some wonderfull friends who i still see today. There were kids at all the do's more at some than at others, but it was a great way to get some social life. At one that was held on bribie island we had a bloke ride up from melbourne to attend.

I have teenagers too and they would be bored as hell
But as Larf said kids only if you can't get anyone to watch them and I've been down there and met Larf and my kids didn't come with me
