what is interesting is the evil stepmother is a meme in fairy tales but more often it’s the stepfather that is the problem.

in either case… when someone dates someone with children, they need to understand that the children come first for the parent. they have to. children are vulnerable. adults can take care of themselves. children can’t.

I am currently dating someone with kids and it’s been hard at times but bottom line, a decent man (or woman) will put their child first. no matter how crazy in love they are.
