[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of my regrets about moving to the US is the fear that one of my children would end up marrying a single parent. You didn't mention OP if your XBF's family is non-white? In no other country would people be completely okay with a single, successful man marrying a woman who already has a child by another man. It's not so bad if the genders were reversed but single moms are really looked down upon by mainstream society, especially when they are unmarried. [/b]I also would not be okay playing grandparent to a child who isn't from any of my own children. [b]No offense but I think the American trend of blended families is too idealistic.[/quote]

Holy crap!! What awful country do you come from with these views? 
You couldn’t love a grandchild unless he was your own blood? A child? 
I would politely request that you please return to your country. [/quote]
The PP is correct. This is true of many, many cultures.[/quote]

Agree.
They also do t view the wife in such great esteem, since she is never their blood, only son and grandkids.[/quote]

This is true for the husband as well.  It comes in handy when there’s generational wealth transfers as each spouse understands that family money is only for well blood related family.  I’m entitled to what my family gives me and he’s entitled to what his family gives him.  In some ways I think it’s superior especially if there aren’t children involved.[/quote]
