[quote=Anonymous]I think some of the reactions are far fetched. I’m divorced with a 2 year old, and based on some of the logic here, I should not have a companion or even have another kid (I’m 31) and do nothing until the child is 18. There are many second marriages and step parents. And there is no one size fits all...it’s up to you and not your parents. I know several re-marriages that have turned out well and way healthier than the first (though in these, the first husbands are pretty much out of the picture in the kids lives). I don’t see anything wrong with trying to model a healthy and happy relationship for your child. And I also think you’d get very different responses in the relationship forum. The way I see things...as long as you make your child a priority, show them love, they are pretty resilient and do well...regardless of what the situatiion is. Because you get remarried does not mean your child will turn into a drug abuser or delinquent. [/quote]
