[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hm, I'd say no.  Meeting single moms is fine, but meeting ones that have children concurrently enrolled at the same preschool is a no.  I suggest library storytime.  Crawling with moms...and crawling with babies.  [/quote]

People often advise against dating anyone you might bump into again if things don't work out (e.g. work, gym, kids' school, etc.). While this does help to avoid awkward moments, the downside is people can act the fool, knowing they will never see the person again. Take ghosting, or flaking for example. People do this because they know they can get away with it. Because there is no overlapping social circle, people don't give a second thought about behaving badly (ghosting, ignoring, flaking, sending dick pics) while dating. If he goes out with the woman from preschool, both of them would be more likely to behave with a modicum of decency because they know they will see the other person again and they don't want word of their awful behavior to spread to other parents at the school.

I'm not saying he should treat preschool as main dating pool, but there is a downside to always avoiding people because you may have to see them again if things don't work out--sometimes knowing you will have to see them again is a good thing.[/quote]
