    Never date a single mother. Don't try to be her knight in shining armor either. It's not worth it at all. Find a woman without children.

      Being a stepdaddy is like eating another man's half finished meal and then being saddled with the entire bill. Single mothers aren't looking for partnership, they are desperately looking for help.

    The maturity and the patience has to be there when dating someone who has a child who’s other parent is still heavily involved . Without prayer I wouldn’t have made it this far. Like you really have to have patience but not loose yourself and stay true to your morals. The child is preprogrammed and it can be difficult like you said disciplining the child through your partner works best so that everyone understands the unity. I didn’t know what to expect especially me being only 10 years older than the child and not having kids of my own however, I think right now I’m trying to position myself into that authority role. I might have went about it the wrong way in the beginning with trying to be the “friend”. I also could say maybe the way we were introduced might have been wrong. “This is blank they are my friend” which looking back we probably shouldn’t have taken that approach. It’s a struggle sometimes but I am grateful for the child and I’m still learning to be grateful for the child’s other parents involvement. Any advice Gunther?
    Great video btw ✌🏾have a great day.

    Loved this conversation. I just got into a relationship and my gf has a 4 year old son. I see so many videos and even my father, saying you should never be a father of another man’s seed. But, my gf and her son makes that hard to believe. My gf (treats/believes in)me better than anyone has done in my life. Her son makes the relationship easy, because he’s not a bad kid. He has manners and respect. His father is in his life. So, that makes things easy as well. I fear failing them at times, but this video gave me some hope and positivity. I’m new to this channel and I pray you guys have nothing but the best and blessings. Continue your growth as people, as a family, and helping others.. like myself and my family to be. Thank you.

She didn’t want her son on a tire swing, but the son did. I pushed him on the tire swing. That created a argument. Saying “Don’t question her parenting” and she told me to leave her place.

    Wording it as real dad vs step dad is emotionally delicate. You’re a father, and they’re all your children. I grew up in divorce, and my stepmom didn’t embrace us the same way my stepdad did. Language means everything to kids.

  • @Mugabz13
    @Mugabz13 3 роки тому +1

    This was a really great conversation! Thank you guys for putting it out there. To be honest, I'd previously had said dating someone who already had kids was a deal breaker for me, I was more excited about adopting with my spouse since we'd both be starting from the same place with the kid, the relationships wouldn't be skewed one way or the other, but you've really encouraged me that it can still be worth it if you count the cost.
    I was just curious, if you had to boil fatherhood down to one or two things, what would they be? I got "correction" a lot from this video, so might it be the father is the one who corrects? I'd liked the idea that what being a father boils down to is an encourager. But that also means "encouraging" kids past their own short sided way of looking at things at times.
    And I'd be interested in hear more, perhaps from Kandase's perspective about the things she had to also adjust for along with Kellen... was it things like bedtimes for Kellen? Having that consistency is hard, to set and follow through with bedtimes, it's no joke.
    In the mean time, between time, Tesla Model X full review?? Haha. I believe you've had the car for a minute. Worth it at the end of the day? I love Tesla, so I'm hoping you say yes. You guys said one of the primary reasons for getting the car was the falcon style doors would make it easier for Kandase, has that been the case? Charging experience? Maintenance costs?
    Love the content guys!

      Because it’s a thankless job. You take all the responsibility with no legal support should shit hit the fan, you’ll always be priority number two- both to spouse and to the child (bio dad still exists), and you can never discipline the child without being reminded that you are not the child’s parent. It’s like being a volunteer doctor- you’re doing a good thing, but nobody really gives a shit about you.

      Played that role. Was in a relationship with a single mom for 4 years. She ended up cheating. By that time I was attached to her son and he liked me too. Unfortunately will never see him again, unless he reaches out when he's older. So being a step dad is all risk and no gain. Luckily didn't get married, and I fiercely encourage every man to never commit to a single mom. Just bust them down and RUN FOREST, RUN!
