[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the new spouse is actually good to my kids (and I seriously doubt that), I'd be fine with it right away, honestly. However, I think there's a tiny fraction of people out there who would be kind to my kids and not jealous of DH paying attention to them over any kids they might have together. So in reality, I would not want him to remarry until the kids are grown. [/quote] Honestly, this. In theory, I don't think there is any set right amount of time. Sometimes particularly with long illnesses, the grieving is actually done when the dying person is still alive. By the time they pass away, it can almost be a relief that the suffering is over and everyone is ready to move on. In reality, it seems very hard to find someone that would be truly good to the children and wouldn't interfere with the remaining parent giving all they've got to the kids, which is what many/most kids would need after losing a parent.[/quote]
