I dont agree, i was married. most of it i stayed because of my children. my children are happier now than when we were together, they see mam and dad not fighting and we get along great. they spend just as much time with dad as with me.
i knew someone was going to ask me that, it was told me by a social worker and i asked her, a broken family as in mam and dad constantly at war things like that
I was saying that in relation to the one about they are just from broken homes, in my experience and it was with the welfare and probation services, they are from disadvantaged areas. Many of them were a product of their society. I believe strongly that it is better to be from a broken home than a broken family. we are all products of our own society so we need to show our children how to behave and teach them to grow into healthy respectful young men and women regardless of whether mom and dad live under the same roof, once the child gets time with both and both are healthy role models i think they will grow up just fine.
I dont agree with you there, i wouldnt let anyone im 'dating' cook meals for my kids or buy them things, mend their bikes or scold them. my children have a father and an excellent one, they spend one week with me and one with him.
i hate this pre conceived notion that all single mothers are looking for a replacement daddy for their kids, its utter rubbish!
infact most ppl i date never even meet my children!
Ive had grommets, 3 times! and used cotton wool trick and i always gotten infections! even having a shower i can get an ear infection, my son is the same, be mindful grommets have a life span of 6 months in and around. :)
I havent read what others have posted so excuse me if im repeating!
have you asked him what he'd like to do? i find giving my two an option they dont get bored as easy.
theres the play centre, the zoo, playground. picnic in the park, kick around a football. i think once kids are moving they dont have time to be bored.
also maybe i also think he could be protecting his mother if ur separated, by saying he is bored with you he may think hes not upsetting her rather than telling her he had a blast! i had this with my two until i had a chat with them :) just an idea
