I suppose some guys don,t fancy the prospect of taking on some other guys kids Kerry, it,s always been that way I suppose.. Personally it wasn,t something that bothered me when I met my wife to be(though we,re divorced now).. It,s gonna be a case of when the right guy meets you,he has to accept the whole package..There are some decent ones about still, I,m sure...

Works the other way too. I find it hard when a bloke has young ones. Its nice to see he takes his obligations seriously, but difficult to make allowances

I dunno i agree with what was said it's a case of when the right person comes along and if you look for it it never happens. I have a 8 year old with my ex and I suppose some can see me with baggage. I have my daughter every week and one long weekend a month. Like being a biker it what I am and not change for anyone

Noone is saying you should change, its just that different people want different things thats all

I don't think it's a problem, just something you accept when you meet someone

In my opinion a dates just that, a date..... it's a long way down the road before your guy would be considering taking on your children Kerry, and even thats if you moved in together..... kids should be kept out the equation for a while so you can get to know each other first and have some fun times together... then if the times right introduce them to the guy you're dating and move on from there.... there are lots of great guys out there so good luck Kerry x

i agree with nutkin. And lots of guys have kids too. Down the road when it's the right time...there can be advantages. Although, step children, well that could start a whole new forum thread

I agree with JP Kerry, I had 2 kids who were young adults, was hard for me to get used to having young teenagers about when Mr_P and I got together.

It's a hard road when dealing with somone elses kids cos we all have our own way of doing things and it's real easy to get it wrong l
lmao believe me I have the T-shirt!!!

But when it's right it works, it was hard for me when kids were very small, they were about the same age as yours sound when I divorced it is hard but I enjoyed time with my friends and with my kids and when it happened with somone they had to realise that my kids were my priority no matter what.

Spot on again Nutkin! I totally agree that kids should be kept out of it initially (other than mentioning them of course!) not many people recah my age without 'baggage' although I would hate to think of my kids as 'baggage' - they are my world, my inspiration and above all else, always come first!

Hi Kerry,


It won't help having your profile disabled by the way!


Funny how you've got so many replies from women when your title clearly asks for fellas opinions, you girls just can't help yourselves can you!!


I've got 5 kids aged 6 to 26 and i've got no interest in women who have none as they couldn't possibly understand the commitment or the responsibility. There's plenty of blokes about who are bringing up kids on their own or are part time dads so just focus on getting to meets/ride out's when you can and someone will turn up when you least expect it. An old cliche but it will happen

Hi Kerry, I would say don't go looking for something just let it happen naturally. Unlike NK I wouldn't hide the kids, be open and honest that you have the kids and that you come as a package, if he's a genuine guy he will accept that. What I didn't agree with is that the kids come before the guy, they should all be treated fairly and equally. But as others have said, get out have fun and you never know what might happen.
