I dont think I berated anyone in my prior post it stated " Its not for some ppl" And I dont think I called a name at any time. So you must not be talking to be. I am most sure that If you dont want to date me "for whatever reason" kids or not. I have alot more respect for you if your honest.

There are alot of men that do date women with kids. There are alot that don't. I do let men know that I have kids because my kids are not going anywhere anytime soon. This way, I don't waste their time, and more importantly, they don't waste mine.

Its funny cos i'm a guy looking for a lovely woman to spend my life with, and thats with or with out children. and as soon as they see i'm a large guy they run a mile, maybe its a case of not being so chosey, or in some cases small minded, we are still people with feelings underneath.

Actually i am a mother of 2 children, they are my life and will always come first. Yes there are guys out there that will date women with children. But always be honest and forward tell them from the begining that you have children. Some guys think that becuase you are a single mother, you are looking for a father for them, which in most cases is not true. But just remember that if he doesn't want you because you have children then its his loss not yours!!! Love kids and when you least expect it, you will find the one you are looking for.

I get the same at times men who say they accept children but then to find out they only want you. If you are not intersted in a person who has a child then say so instead of wasting our time. I am fully employed not looking for a sugar daddy or dad for my son. Some of us want a life with someone but had a child. It is not my fault that my sons dad died and I am single mom know looking for the right man so think about it before you speak.

If they have children it is part of the package and they are a very important to the relationship. If she has children and you want some more, you have to be grown up enough to accept all responsibilities.

OK so I have been wondering the same myself. But I will further this question by saying this...

Why is it that attractive younger men (lets say between 28-38) who CLAIM they want kids on their profile, NEVER respond to a profile of a woman who is clearly attractive and intelligent? What are we toxic? Yes, I have 2 small kids, I am a mom, but I'm not dead! (and really ladies if they only knew just how dame good we get with age and experience they may think twice) What their profiles should read are "Yes I want kids, just not yours"

On the other side of things, and I know this is going to sound really b**chy. Why is it that it seems that mostly unkempt,unfit,wife beater wearing, unable to spell, inarticulate men add me to their favorites or email me? These guys would NEVER approach me in the real world (and I wouldn't think I would approach them) so why here? Tell me, Why should I settle for someone that I don't find attractive? I am not saying I am out of anyones league, I am not shallow or vain by any stretch of the imagination. My ex husband was attractive and smart, and honestly, I am not willing to "downgrade" (so to speak) simply because I am now the stigmatized single mom. Lord, I just turned 30, I owned my first home at 21, I work hard, I am self sufficient, my truck is paid for, I have an awesome job, I am intelligent and pretty and I am a great woman and friend. Does being a mom somehow make me less worthy of attractive, smart men? Can someone PLEASE explain!

Anyhow thats my beef for this week. lol I am not being shallow, honestly I am not, I am saying attractive in a general sense... Have a bath, show some pride in your appearance and remember beer bellies are not considered sexy. Really is it to much to ask?

Cheers
Ms.Meew

they are there, just keep looking. And men with kids prefer women with kids too in general.

it does go both ways, i have 2 kids but they live with their mum most of the week and with me at weekends, as soon as people have found out that i cant do anything at weekends cause i have my kids they up and run...... cant work it out.
i have said that i dont want any more kids on my profile but that is new borns, if i met someone with kids, then they are a package, you have to take them all and i would gladly do so, if i could find that person.
its like beating ur head off a wall, bloody sore and dosnt get u anywhere lol
so if there are any single moms out there looking a good honest man then GIVE ME A SHOUT

The answer to the original question is yes. I dated a few women years ago, and the only one that had a child was the one I ended up having a relationship with for several years. Her child was a bonus, not a detraction.

I usually date women with kids. The reason is that I am snipped and do not want to get reversed to have more kids. Also I don't know of any women that would not eventually want kids so if she already has them then there is a better chance that we would be a match. Children definitely add more stress to a relationship.

i can honestly say i would date a woman with kid's.i feel that if two people connect with each other then it shouldn't be no problem.i have a son and i am proud of it.the way i see it is if you have kid's then thank god for them everyday.

I keep asking myself that same question! You see these profiles where the guys say they are willing to date someone with kids, but you never get a replie back when you try to contact them.

Well, yes it matters. If you're the type of person who just wants a normal family ( no steps or halves) and be married somewhat blissfully with out having to deal with your partners ex (doesn't matter if the ex is a good person or not). If i have made a conscious choice not to start having kids without metting that special one, whats the point.

Thats my two cents.

yes there are men out there. I am the type that may not openly look for a woman with kids but if i start talking with a woman that does have kids i will not "run" but possibly enjoy the relationship we have.
