[quote=Anonymous]I think it depends on if you want kids or not. If you want kids of your own, it certainly makes things more complicated but could be great for the child if they always wanted siblings. If you never wanted kids, I wouldn't--you will come to resent the children if parenting is not something that interests you. On the flip side, my brother was divorced with two kids 7 and 12 (very mutual divorce), married someone who never had kids and didn't want any of her own but was thrilled to have stepkids who were young enough to still form a relationship but not in the baby/toddler stage. She's a good stepmom, the kids love her and gets along well with my ex-SIL. They even hang out/talk without the kids. In the right situation, it can be great for everyone but you really need to consider all of the dynamics and have an open and honest conversation to plan for anything that could come down the pike, specifically in cases of guardianship and finances.[/quote]
