[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really was uncomfortable when my DD had a playdate in middle school and I found out that the single mom's boyfriend was at home during the playdate.  I don't mind single moms.  I do mind boyfriends.[/quote]

And this is different than a day or stepdad how??? Does signing a piece of paper magically make someone less likely to sexually assault someone? Do you just not like unrelated men around your child? How about male teachers??[/quote]

I'm the single mom upthread. I don't have a boyfriend, and I certainly wouldn't host a playdate if it meant the children would be home alone with my (fictional) boyfriend. Heck, I wouldn't have hosted a playdate if only my husband were home, unless we knew the family very very well and the other family knew I would not be there.

With that said, was the mom home? So the objection is to the presence of a boyfriend even if the mom is there? There are loads of reasons why a divorced mum wouldn't remarry but rather remain in a committed relationship that isn't legally binding. [/quote]
