When to let kids meet new girlfriend
Excuse me if this question has been asked before, but when is the
appropriate time to let children meet a person you are dating? My ex and I have some disagreements about this. I feel that I should be in a relationship long enough to know that it has the potential to be lasting before I subject my daughter (6 years old) to meeting the person I am dating. I don't believe that my daughter should be exposed to every person I go out with, or her mother, just for a matter of convenience. My ex wife has dated three different guys over the past five months, and now my ex is with someone new again. I asked her to please give her relationships time before having the person around my daughter, but the new guy is already wanting to go to my daughter's T-Ball games, etc. Am I crazy for thinking that it's unfair to my daughter to be exposed to these guys so quickly? Am I unreasonable thinking that my ex should wait six months or whatever amount of time it takes to see if the relationship will turn serious? |

In my opinion yes, absolutely, parents should wait long enough to get to know this person much better before subjecting their children to not only the heartbreak of continous loss and instability created when the relationship does not last and the child begins to build a relationship with the person themselves,but very importantly , because it takes a while to know for sure these people you bring into your childrens lives will not be a danger to them! You just can not know a person well enough in less than a year and that may not be enough time to really be sure things will work out! You are being very responsible to your childs mental,emotional and physical health ! Your ex wife should know better, shame on her ! Bev |

You put the subject as "When to let kids meet new girlfriend" yet is this about your girlfriend? Is your ex a lesbian? We've had a few topics lately on here about bi and heck, I think there was even a mention or three about quad-gendered or something. Does your ex date lesbian males who get what they want from her then leave? I'm a bit of a Confusedasaurus Rex. |

Little bit angry aren't you. Does your ex date lesbian males who get what they want from her then leave? I'm a bit of a Confusedasaurus Rex. You don't have to be ****ed at me because of whatever happened to you. I'm a good father and a good person. |
