It seems the last few women I have met, as soon as they find out I have kids thats the end.

I've had that trouble too, I have an Autistic son and that has thrown some people off, unless they get to meet him, he is a real charmer...

I too have had this problem. But I have a second strike against me. Raising three kids alone and having had triple bypass.

I was beginning to think of changing my screen name to taboo man, LOL

As a women I get that alot to.. But i think its cool to see a father with his kids . Really you dont see that to often . Dont feel like it is you. It maybe that she may not want kids or isnt ready for kids. Thats cool but there well be women out there that thinks it is cool also like me well later ... Summer

SUMMER I agree with you I am a single mom and men get discouraged all the time so I also think its great that men are taking to raising their kids if thats what it calls for and women should see the value in that.

I like a man with kids. That way I know that he knows what my life as a single parent is all about. I have found that alot of guys without children can't understand why I can't just up and go out at a moment's notice, or why I might have to cancel if a kid or a sitter gets sick. I've also found that a guy with kids is more accepting of my kids than a guy without kids.

Then you have met the wrong women. I love kids, have 2 of my own, want more but i can't have them...The girls that aren't willing to accept you for who you are, and your kids are part of who you are, then they aren't worth your time. Keep lookin' we are out there...

I just commented on a different post about the MEN I've met who find out I have kids and turn and run. I think it's great that some men take on the challange of raising their kids alone and would not think twice about them having kids. Be just like the Brady Bunch!! (without the housekeeper )

I totally love guys with kids. They accept mine and understand the life of a parent. It does let you see more of the guy if you can see him with his kids. I love the the "window" it lets you see past the surface.

And as far as women without kids- my best friend has no kids, she isn't sure she wants them (although she would make a great mother) but her boyfriend has 2 kids and lives next door to his ex. She has accepted them fully and wholeheartedly. She is learning the tricks of the trade from being around them and from picking up with/ behind me. She helps me with mine.

To me it offers an opportunity to see another side of the guy! It's like the old saying, actions speak louder than words. Holds true with kids too - a person can *say* they'd be like this and that as a parent but until they actually experience, they don't know and you can tell a heck of a lot bout a person from how they are with their children, I think!

My last 3 year relationship was with a man who had a beautiful 3 yr old little girl. It was through her that I discovered what agreat mom I will be. I loved her and Loved the resposibility of being her step mom. The relationship dissolved once He let the ex take her away to live in the States, things were just never the same. I LOVE the idea of an instant family as long as feels right. I think the problem that women have with single fathers is not neccesarily the kids but the ex wife. I personally am VERY interested in a widower with young children.

I agree with Virgin Lip Service as well.
I don't know if I want to have my own kids (that's involves sex which I dont think I'm ready for either). So a guy with kids who is a responsible father and shows that he is, is WAY more attractive than a guy without kids. I dont know WHY, but to me.. it just seems that the father is more grounded then the non-father guy. You know? Besides, I like kids. I do...despite what I may say sometimes. :)

I personally find fathers with children(as long as they are very active in their childs life's) much more attractive...it shows that they likely have alot of qualities that aren't immediately apparent...such as responsibility, compassion, and patience.

GOtta love single dads with kids..
That way i get to hang out with their kids and I don't have to have them myself. SUch a bargain.
Plus i find that men with kids are a bit more in tune as to how to make a woman happy. Single dads have an absolute sexy quality to them, the responsibility that they show, the love and everything else.

I do know some women who prefer to have their own, and are actually afraid that if they get involved with a single dad that their chances of this may not become realized because maybe the guy really does not want any more. Others are turned off because it means that they would not be the center of attention in the guys life. That kind of insecurity you are better off without. BUT as a single mom I actually admire a single dad. It shows a caring and compassionate side I have found sorely lacking in a lot of men. I've come in contact with several who will only consider an involvement with a single mom if "she leaves the kids at home with a sitter". In my opinion this is an extremely selfish and self centered person and not worth your time anyway. Good luck in your search........

I just like 'em all... doesn't matter... kids or no kids! (either way as long as he understands and respects that my son is top priority in my life......and if he has kids of his own I will understand and respect that his kids are top priority in his life). I think our kids deserve to be treated with the same respect that adults deserve to be treated with - - otherwise - how are they ever going to learn it? Good luck, Doug... and to all you single dads!

i totally agree with everyone here, and dads that step up and raise their kids on their own are really hott guys. i would rather date a man with kids then a guy who doesnt have kids.

I am looking for a single day actually so if any of you live near me...lol...I see single dads as dads and how they would more in likely interact with my kids...they would understand about cancelling dates or when the kids are sick...and I find they are less likely to want to go and galavant they may actually include the kids in the activities...yeah I think it would be great...although I would want his child/children to be some what around my childrens ages...
