[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]  I’m considering it because we have the same values and I really admire him as a father. [/quote]

OP he had a teen and two adult kids who don’t live at home. If you’re only engaged now, how much “fathering” have you seen? If you’re looking at 3 well-educated and behaved young people, there’s undoubtedly someone responsible for it. Their mom. Sexist? Probably. True? Also likely yes. This doesn’t make him a great Dad. It means he chose his first partner well, and maybe has chosen his second well. But if you don’t think you’re going to be doing the bulk of the work for that baby with a man in his 50’s, you’re not thinking this through. [/quote]

OP here. His first wife died and he was a single father with no family support. He is an extremely devoted and hands on father, even with his adult children. I do expect age to play a role in the fathering of any future children. For my child I was the primary parent while married and handled it fine, with the exception that my spouse at the time and I had differing values so he often undermined my parenting. [/quote]
