[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Different people have different opinions. I have the exact opposite reaction. I routinely post here supporting elderly parents who are dating and but I'm against anyone with non adult children dating. [/quote] Seriously?!?! So if your spouse died when your kids were 7, 4, and 2, you would wait until the youngest was 18+ to begin dating again? Fine if you want that, but that is not normal or healthy at all for most. I do support that if you have kids under 18, you should NOT introduce them to your dates until you are engaged or close to it (in a long term relationship that you see lasting forever and are both committed to each other), because your kid's should not have to deal with any of that. But a parent deserves to be happy and can still parent kids while dating. They deserve some adult companionship and cannot be 100% focused on the kids 24/7. It's okay (especially after 4 years) to focus a bit on themselves. [/quote]
