[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because it's going to go badly. The kids will be spoiled and entitled. The new wife wants to pretend she didn't marry an old man with baggage, but she did, and she's going to resent the time he spends with his original children and, eventually, his grandchildren. She might not get to have as many of her own kids as she wanted. The older he gets, the more she'll hate what she chose for herself, because she'll have to do most of the parenting as well as deal with his aging, and a long widowhood starts to seem like a real thing. It's not an easy thing for a wife. [/quote] This is why second marriages fail. If he repeatedly disappoints his new wife and doesn’t show up for her as a husband and father to their kids together, she’s going to leave in most cases. There won’t be enough good will for her to stick it out as he gets old and sick. That’s human nature. [/quote]
