You wouldn't be a bystander in my home. Step-parents are "parents" in my book. I'm a step-mom and I was instrumental in several areas of my stepson's life. He wouldn't be where he is today if it weren't for me.

Sometimes, step-parents are better parents to the kids than their own parents. Not all people who make a baby are good at the part about raising a child.

The future step-father to my daughter, I hope, will raise her as he would his own daughter. I won't be living with a guy who I didn't trust around my child.

I would still have the most power over her, but I wouldn't expect a man with whom I'm living with and with whom my daughter is living with 95% of the time to not have some say in how she is raised.

A lot of women don't share that pov. It's usually the "real" parent has more say so in the house. I'm a huge believer that men need to lead their homes. It just seems to work better for everyone.

I doubt that. I think you really need to just take it on a case by case basis, if you found a single mom you wanted to date. But I know that's not your thing, so...

In addition to tragedies, ancient Greek playwrights wrote "satyr plays" to lighten the air for audiences after watching dramas with incest, murder, and betrayal. Satyrs were the male followers of Dionysus, the god of wine and fertility, and the plays were full of comedy, sexual filth, and heavy phallicism.

Well you're over 40 so your motives and expectations are totally different but I am glad someone sees where I'm coming from on the third one.
Raising someone elses kid doesn't feel fair to me and quite honestly it makes me very uncomfortable

lippy is not a big fan of the "step parent"...i think it depends on at what age you try to integrate the step parent into the household...the younger the child the better...young children are much more accepting of newness...it is also important to gage the relationship between the exes...if two people split on good terms then there is a better transition for step parents...but if one or both of the parent takes part in any spouse bashing to the child about the other parent or step parent then it can become a quite conflicting situation for the child

my son is in high school right now so there is not way in hell i am going to introduce another male into the house...it would not be fair to either one of them...

Soulja Boy turned 21 on Thursday, and the rapper bought himself a $ 55 million private jet for the occasion.

That nigga is dumb
 
I had a scare concerning my son, but thank God it turned out not to involve him. A boy his age with a silver 2005 Mustang like his was in a serious accident where he & the 4 teens with him were all killed. My phone started ringing like crazy with people asking if it was him. He wasn't home at the time & I was freaking out because he wasn't answering his phone. Thankfully he showed up at one of my stores & one of my employees (who was one of the people who called me about the accident) told him to call me. It was such a huge relief to hear his voice. Thanks to God for it not being my baby! My heart & prayers go out the families of those kids.
