[quote=Anonymous] It seems like it's one upheaval after another for these kids. Their dad remarried way too soon. They aren't eager to have another major life change forced upon them, and that's what this is. They're going to have to share their time with you and put up with this guy all the time, potentially live with him. What's in it for them? Nothing at all. 6-7 months is a short time in this context. I wouldn't say it's wrong to introduce, but if you force this you may be poisoning your relationship with them and him for years to come. They aren't ready. You wish they were, but they aren't, and that's the reality. Kind of like how they wish their parents had a happy marriage, but they didn't, and they have to deal with that reality. I would give it until a full year at least. [/quote]
