[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is eye opening to me.  I'm getting divorced and will be sharing custody of my son,  and was planning on online dating once divorced.  I have few recent pictures of me without my son in them.   I understand that someone would be dating me,  but it seems like important information that I have a kid,  both because raising him takes up a lot of my free time,  and he is everything to me,  so I wouldn't want to be in a relationship with someone who didn't want to be in a relationship with a single dad.  I understand I shouldn't post pics of him on the Internet and shouldn't make my being a dad the centerpiece of my profile,  [b]but I'm curious what people recommend so as not to come off as sketchy or unbecoming[/b].  (no risk of torso pics.) [/quote]

I would start by NOT saying that your son is your everything (and that advice goes to moms too). Children have no place in dating. Anyone who chooses to get involved with a parent knows that their child is important to them and that it is a 'package deal' so to speak. That doesn't need to be emphasized with pictures or multiple kid-centered statements. Focus on what you bring to the dating table (a sense of humor, a sense of adventure, etc.)[/quote]

OP here. I like this. Thanks. [/quote]
