| I suppose if your child started dating a single parent at 18 you'd be a little upset as well. You always want the best for your own children and sometimes you can't see past the small little things and see that they're happy. My advice is to just keep in the shadows until a time comes that they want to meet you. ↑ |

| Umm...well. I think you're looking at it from a very good point of view. The only way i can see the parents responding to you in a positive manner is if you are put together finically. I bet they are concerned you'll be asking for diaper money for Olivia. BUT…then again the parents may never like you because you’re dating their son. But you should give it a good effort and try to get along with them. How long have you been seeing each other? Is it that serious where you would want to meet his parents? I see nothing wrong in dating a younger guy, I am. But then again he doesn't live with his parents and is completely independent from them. ↑ |

| We havent been seeing each other long, only since the end of last month..so nearly a month..but my thoughts are if its it going to get complicated in the early stages i would rather just walk away.. i would never ask him for anything for my daughter, she is mine and my responserblity and i work so i can pay for her food, formula clothes and nappies etc...I get a good income and have a good job. We are going boating this friday my mum is going to look after Olivia so i can go ( i am so lucky) but he said i will probs meet his parents on friday so thats why im stressing... my main point is, he is dating me..and even though i have my gorgeous baby girl there is no expectations from me for him to take on the father role. Olivia is surrounded by people that love her and i am not looking for a father for her, she has one...he is just a dick..and she probs never will meet him and thats fine. This guy said to me that his mum is worried that because i have olivia there may be another male involved and if he comes back into the picture she is worried about her son getting her emtionally and phyically..I rreally do see there point especaially being a parent myself. but i do care for this guy and i dont want to get hurt either. ↑ |

| I would ignor the parents feelings for now. If you are having good time with the boyfriend that what is mutter. If love will get strong and both of you will deside to move to the next step, then they will have to deal with it. Just be nice and polite to them. You can't really make someone like you. Hopefull, eventually they will learn to exept you and respect their son's wishes. Sorry, my baby is crying so I can't write more...good luck!!! ↑ |
