Would you? why or why not? State your age and reason I'm certain with age your opinion changes but curious. Is this a religion thing, culture thing, you were raised like this? (edited)

I'm a parent myself . But I would take on someone else's children/child of course . If you can't handle children then don't go for the mother/father cause hands down children will always come first .

I chose not to have kids. The world is not safe or good enough. And if by not having kids is exactly to avoid them going through the same pain I went through, then yes definitely I still don't want to be a parent.

No, unfortunately. I'm surprised myself, considering my step father married a woman who had 3 kids at a time, and I have full love and respect for him.. But I won't be able to do it myself. The doubt about whether this relationship is real or not would tear me apart.

I mean... love is love after all. and if both of you are mature enough to take care of yourselves and a child then why not, right? At least that's what I have in might right now at 24 maybe later it'll change but right now I can't really see a problem if the situation is good for both

For someone like me who doesn't have kids, to date someone who does have kids, it becomes a hastle because you're no longer just dating her, you're also taking responsibility for the kid too, and if the kids father is still in the image, it becomes more weird. That's just how I see it.

There could be many reasons why, or why not. But for me, it has to do with maturity, which normally arises at certain age with the understanding that probably that person met someone they thought would be the person they would stay with. I'm 30, oc I would. But there's a big responsibility on both sides that resides more on the emotional intelligence that with the idea of love.

Probably not.. reason being it's too complicated. If you consider yourself a higher income.. more desirable person you should look for the right situation. If I can't discipline the child I don't want them around me. Kids know how to push buttons and use leverage

I am a single parent. Im 34. Back in my early 20s i never would have dated a single parent or even someone divorced. I had an idea of what love was. Marriage is super hard. You can't make a marriage work by being the only one trying to improve things. I actually dont believe in marriage anymore. I still believe in love, all i want is a healthy lifelong romantic partnership. Not sure I'll find it.

Considering I am one, and I love kids in general, dating another single parent seems like a fairly easy path to rationalise.

I've been a single parent, and I've dated single parents. At my age I prefer if the kids are older; mine all live on their own.

Yeah, 22 bc I have done so before and don't care to do so again. Kids don't put me off and parents are FAR less likely to take advantage of others...

I'm 22 (soon to be 23) and the reason is because... well, I'm honestly scared of children. Like, a legit phobia of kids. Kinda weird, I know, but I'm trying to get past it.

I would. I'm 24 and i have a child so if my partner also had 1 then they would understand the sacrifices we make for our kids. Which can sometimes include sacrificing time with them. I guess some ppl forget how important kids are and how everything a parent does effects the kid in some way. If my partner has a child I hope its close to my childs age. I wouldn't want my partner to have more than 1 kid unless I'm older like in my late 30s. My child will be more independent by then

I can't, there's so many reasons against vs. for. And only a handful circumstances where i'd go for it and thousands where I wouldn't go for it. Knowing that I'm dating a single parent already comes with a ton of strings, it's not like they can detach from their child, if they told me they could that's already a red flag for me. The dynamics of a single person vs a single parent is clashing two weird worlds together. If both parties were single parents then it'd be far more likely. Short of that though I've never seen it work out as a majority scenario unless you've been friends in ages past.

Currently no because of my most recent relationship. I dated a single dad with two kids. I never knew where I stood with him when it came to his kids. If I tried to talk or interact with them the eldest would twist my words around to say horrible things about me to her younger sibling and her mom. This then caused many tears from his youngest child and angry calls from his ex wife. I felt insecure and not welcome in my own home. I began to dread when his kids came over and developed a lot of negative emotions toward them. The relationship ended for different reasons but I don't want to go through that again at this time.

I would not. I'm 27 and I choose to be child free because I don't want any of the responsibility of being a parent.

It's very possible for them to make it not worth your while to date them, but otherwise it's just an additional member to the family you hope to raise.
