How do you feel dating someone with a child or children? I ask this because I am a mother (of one) myself and wanted to know others views. To answer ahead of time, yes, my son is an otaku ^_^

My ex had two kids, now 13 & 15, and both were special needs. Her son has aspurgers, Her daughter scitzoeffective. Honestly, I loved it. We felt like a family, the only problem was that we argued a lot. I miss the kids, but it was something that had to be done.
So to answer your question, I have the experience, so yes I am ok with it.

I've also been in a relationship with someone who was a single mother.
We were only together for 9 months and her daughter 4 at the time.
It was different, but in a good way, and i'd do it again.
That being said, it doesn't matter to me whether someone is a parent or not.

Personally, I wouldn't want to be with anyone with a child. It puts a lot of pressure of having to try to not only one person like you, but the kid as well. Not to mention, I feel as if it would cause drama with the other biological parent of the kid. They might be one of those crazy people who may not someone going around their child. I honestly don't want kids anyways.
Also I think its harder and unfair for the kid to grow attached to whomever your dating (If the child does like them) because if things don't work out, the child is feeling left sad because they don't get to see them any longer. So I'd rather not deal with that and just date someone who isn't a parent. I know some people don't mind, but from my view, that is kind of a dealbreaker.

Everybody has their own opinions on the matter, but honestly, I don't feel like you can't give somebody a chance just because they have a child, that's not very fair.

That's just our preference is all. No need to get defensive about it.
