Honey, I've got kids! Are you ready to be a step-mom?

{title}
You meet a great guy. He’s cute, smart, successful and a father. Are you ready for an instant family? It’s not a easy decision, so you do really need to think about it before you get in too deep.

We have a fun Sassy Bean Parenthood Test that could help you make a decision so you don’t waste your time or his.
True or False?
1. When you see a stroller, do you dive out of the way, not even thinking to peek inside and see what the baby may look like?
2. When you see an expecting mother in her third trimester, your only thought, “How is she gonna lose that baby weight?.”
3, You hear the word “formula,” and the only thing that comes to mind is chemistry class?
4. To you, “a play date” means a hot night with a fantasy guy?
5. You think baby wipes are solely intended to remove your mascara after night on the town?

If you answered “TRUE” to three or more of the above, it might be better to find someone else to go out with this Saturday night. But seriously, it is important that you are very honest with yourself when it comes to possibly taking on children along with a new boyfriend.  Children can be a huge responsibility, even when they are not yours. You may have to be prepared to share time with the children. His ex-wife will also be part of the picture most likely, so you have to be prepared to eventually meet with her or allow your boyfriend and his ex to coordinate schedules.

hello....
I dated a ex-boyfriend from high school.  (thinking he matured) we had gone thru relationships, i have children and so does he, but he does’nt have them with him, his ex-relationships does.
he told me that he did’nt want to raise some more kids. Who Said, i wanted you to raise my kids… and my kids are not in diapers. I was very upset! we were just dating, i was’nt asking for him to marry me.  I right away dropped him, and a year later, he tried crawling back… no way!
