[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]29 is old enough to be cordial, but if I were one of the adult kids in this situation...it’s hard to even begin to articulate how awful it would be to see your dad start over with a new wife and new baby. You made the choice to have this complicated family dynamic. The adult kids did not choose to lose their family of origin.[/quote]

This.  As a 29 year old, reading this makes me want to cry.  I can’t imagine losing my mother and then having my dad start a new family.[/quote]

The mother in this case has been dead for many years. It's a bit selfish of you to go on building your life but expect dad to stay unattached forever.  It's not like you're there to keep him company![/quote]

The parents were already divorced before the mom died.

But anyway, there is a difference between getting remarried and getting remarried and having a new kud a generation younger than an existing set.[/quote]

This.  I'm the 29 year old PP.  I wouldn't expect my father to remain single forever and I'd like to think I'd welcome a new partner into the family...but another baby three decades younger than me would be so hard.  [/quote]
Why?
No one is asking you to raise him/her[/quote]

omg crazy person
so if your father ran around in a gorilla suit you would be fine with it because he is not asking you to dry clean it...[/quote]
Dumbass if you think deciding to make a life with someone is equivalent to warring a costume your ass is crazier than the dude in the gorilla suit.[/quote]

having a toddler with a new wife while collecting social security is actually more stupid than running around in a gorilla suit. this topic is clearly too personal for you to be able to think straight.[/quote]
