I'm a single parent. Are there any dating guidelines I should keep in mind?
If you're a single parent and you want to date, there are a lot of things that you have to consider. First of all, you have to be really honest with the person and tell them that you do have a child. Secondly, you have to realize that some people don't like children, or may not want to be around a child. So you have to screen those people out. You also have to be aware as a single parent that the child oftentimes will be sick. The child will oftentimes not be in a position where you can go on your date. So that's something to be aware of.
