[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Close friend lost spouse at age 36. Two kids - 2 and 5. Met a great person at 18 months post spouse death, engaged 6 months later and married 3 months after that. Seems great so far. New spouse didn't have any kids and they don't plan to have any more. [/quote] This sounds exactly like a neighbor I had back when I lived in CA. A truly nice family. If I die first, I've left instructions for everyone I trust who's close to swoop in and look out for the kids and practical things, because my partner is mentally kind of fragile, and I'm not sure how they'd cope. Normally I'd have said I want my partner/spouse to find someone else as soon as they're ready, but I do worry that this particular person would fall prey to some sociopath who'd be bad for the kids.[/quote]
