[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am divorced and have two small kids.  I can't imagine letting any unrelated man live in my home with my daughters.

That said, my unemployed, uneducated, homeless poor, overweight, bald ex-husband has been taken into a very nice home by a single working mom with two kids.  She doesn't seem to be worried at all about having an unrelated male in her home.

Desperation perhaps?  I dunno.  But your ex might be right that he will be snapped up.  [/quote]

So you do not ever plan to remarry, then?

I am the PP up thread living with my boyfriend, not currently engaged. I can't imagine letting any man in my life, not to mention my vagina, who I wouldn't trust around my daughter. But way to assume that all men are child molesters.[/quote]

I do not plan to marry again for many reasons.  Clearly I am not the best judge of male character.  I'm too independent.  I've gotten used to having my own place and my own way.  I have my own financial life that I've built now. And no, I don't trust men.  Read the "creepy stories" thread on page one of Off Topic and then tell me I am wrong.

The presence of a step father in the home at least doubles the likelihood of molestation of children.

Thank you but I can wait a few years to shack up.

If that's what works best for you, that's fine. But I do disagree with this perception that men are scum, preying on single moms, that women who enter new relationships are desperate or damaged. There are a lot of people out there. Some percentage of them are creeps. Selection criteria are important. So is good judgment.

Good luck with everything.[/quote]
