[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone whose parent moved on right away, I think it's disrespectful to the deceased spouse and the rest of the grieving family to get truly serious about someone until it's been at least a year.  The first Christmas without my dad, featuring 'new grandpa' for my kids, was a really raw experience for the entire family.  [/quote]

I agree and understand.

Did she try to force the kids to call him grandpa when they first met him?

My dad was online dating within weeks after my mom passed. Found out he was bringing my just turned five year old niece who grandma watched every day since birth and who was very close to her, into the room to "help grandpa pick your new grandma."

His selfishness messed her up for a long time and really destroyed her chance to healthily and naturally grieve the loss of her beloved grandma and primary caregiver.

There is an incredible level of selfishness in gleefully foisting their sex life on the rest of the grieving family weeks or months after a parent died.[/quote]
