I totally agree with Minx on this one!!! I also am a single mom and am really shocked at tfp ! I am used to being veiwed in a demeaning way but not when most of what it is about is bullshit and stereotypical!!
I would NEver ask a guy I was seeing to take the place of my children's father/ daddy!! I think it is absurd to even think that about single parents! I would however make it abundantly clear that my children come first before even god!! I would also tell my bf or whatver that they don't have to like my children, play with my children etc, but they do have to tolerate, be nice and respectful to them!!
I am in a new relationship and my bf knows this he also knows that I refuse to pawn my children off on anyone just so I can be with a boy ( because that is what he is if he ever asked me to do so!
Although I believe everyone has a right to that opinion I do think part of the problem is that soem single parents are not honest with their prospective date/gf/whatever!! I am totally upfront with soemone before they ever coem tro my home to pick me up that I have kids9 I am a proud mother) if they have a problem with that they need to be upfront with me about it!! If they only want to date me for "kicks" FUCK THEM!!
