[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do women have kids with these losers? What positive things you saw in this man that you decided he was marriage material or would be a great dad?[/quote]

It goes the other way, too, you know. There are women who are crap at parenting...[/quote]

DP - but you're generally right. Why on earth folks don't have conversations around parenting styles/expectations before having kids is beyond me...[/quote]

Because the conversation you have before even having kids has little resemblance to what you do in 1 year, 5 years or 10 years, or after a divorce.

You don't really know what you will be like as a parent until you are one. You don't really know what your kids will be like and how they need to be parented until you have them, you don't really know how kids will impact your marriage until it happens, and you don't know how the breakdown of your marriage will impact your parenting until it does.[/quote]

This... You don't really have any idea what you'll be like as a parent until you actually are one.  PP sounds like one of those people who has a sister with kids and dispenses with all kinds of free "advice" before heading home to their childless house to dream about what a common sense parent they'd be.[/quote]
