[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think this gets to the root of the potential issue: the revolving door of romantic partners in the child's life. I don't care if mom is sneaking her booty call in/out while the child is asleep. I actually don't really care if every month, the kids are going to get ice cream or play mini golf with a new boyfriend. My concern would be the serial monogamy: that Bill all but lives with mom for a year (but technically sleeps at his own place), and then it's Steve the next year, and Harry the third year. That's what creates instability for the kids, and the "no sleepover" rule doesn't address that. But there is really no good way to prevent that, besides staying married.[/quote] On the contrary, the no sleep over rule would make Bob and John eff off because they're not getting any you know what, but Mike who is actually interested in a family might stick around [/quote]
