[quote=Anonymous]Grief doesn’t have a timeline; it is what is most appropriate for you. You should talk to your children about their thoughts too. Teen years are hard already with stepparents, so I would be concerned about how they would reconcile their grief about parent being gone with the welcoming of a new parental figure. Things could get sticky. If it has been several years and there is some peace around the death, closure and everyone has adjusted to the new way of living, I would have a conversation with my kids and ask them to think about how they would feel if I dated. They are teens so I think that conversation is a good family convo to have. I’m sorry for your loss. Good luck and hope you get good advice here.[/quote]
