Mom's Dating?
So I've been posting a lot lately, a spark of inspiration I suppose. I've been dating on and off for awhile now and it's getting to the point with the new guy where I've met his kids (three wonderful sons) and I like them. They are very much their father's child.
But I have a daughter who is nine and very head strong. On the one hand, I would love to include him in as many aspects of my life as I can. On the other I don't want to set a bad example for my child.
But the question that keeps running through my head is, what is considered to be an appropriate age for a child to be before they meet the person you are dating?
Or even better still how long do you wait before introducing kids to your significant other?

I can't remember when my mom started dating because I was so young, the only man I remember in my life is the step-dad I have now (and that has been since I was 3). I would guess that the appropriate time is when you feel that you are really serious with a guy. She doesn't need to meet anyone that you aren't serious about, it will just be confusing, especially if she likes the guy and things don't work out. Good luck : )
It's not about age, it is about how long this person is going to be in your life and what kind of role you expect him to play. What you have to remember when there is a child involved, if they grow to love and care about the person, they won't understand why they suddenly stop coming around.
Age doesn't matter. You wait until you know this is the person you are going to be with and no other, like the one you are going to marry, and I don't mean he has to have asked you, but you know that is where you are heading.
Just being "serious" can mean a lot of different things. Totally committed for life.
I divorced when I had 4 children. They didn't meet anyone I dated until I met "the one". He is now their awesome stepfather for almost 12 years.
I agree with michoy (& others) - '...when you feel that you are really serious with a guy.'
