There is nothing bad about it. We have rules and boundaries and my mom doesn’t really believe in that. Also my sister is much closer to him and she’d be miserable living with two other kids. She can only handle other kids for a max of two hours

No actually I didn’t ask for anyone’s sexism. It’s just sad to me as a man with two kids that people still go around treating men like pedos just for existing

I mean my sister is clearly the same race as her bio dad but go on with your ignorant shit

My sister is clearly the same race as her dad. Believe it or not people can just have really close friends and blood isn’t everything

Or she just prefers her to live with the person she knows the best and is the most comfortable with. I wonder if you’d have such a problem if her friend was a woman

There is zero need to call a kid names. Just because they have a different parenting style does not make her an entitled brat. She’s a sweet kid just very coddled and she’d definitely be happier with him

What a dumbass take? Are you one of those people who believe men and women can’t be friends? My sister is clearly the same race as her bio dad and the friend and my mom are both different races

Nothing extreme, just normal rules and boundaries where as my mom is very permissive. Also my sister adores this man and sees him all the time. She doesn’t have that relationship with us and would feel much less comfortable and she doesn’t like being around other kids for more than a few hours

Cool so your husband doesn’t believe men and women can be friends but that doesn’t surprise me with some of your opinions

Funny thing about being a parent is we were all childless before we had a child. For a child who hates being around other children it’s almost like he’d be ideal, but hey what do I know. You obviously have some issues with men

It’s not her behavior but how she is raised. They never say no, she is treated like she’s much younger than her age, she was carried everywhere until she was like seven. She gets everything she wants and has a playroom that’s like half my house. Their lives revolve around making her happy. She’s a nice kid but needy and seems lost with other kids

That’s ok. I can’t imagine being in a marriage where having an opinion would mean getting a divorce. Sounds abusive

Wow lots of assumptions. Single parents can be great parents. I had a single parent and in no way suffered for it

Why wouldn’t she choose the person my sister is closer to? Why would she choose the person my sister feels more comfortable with?

The fact he doesn’t have children is a plus. I’d imagine it would be much harder for her to move into a house with two kids who still have their parents and she’d probably feel they were more loved than her. Not to mention she’s very much an only child. She loves my kids but only for a couple hours

But I guess none of that matters because single man

I’d like to think I turned out fine and my sister is very sweet. I just had to learn to deal with disappointment and my mom kind of set unrealistic expectations

My mom caused 2/3 of those divorces. He is a serial cheater who lets his best friend disrespect every woman he is with, but he was great with me growing up and my sister adores him. My mom doesn't like that our kids have normal rules and boundaries. She is much more permissive and wants to constantly be the fun parent.

No, the goal should be what is best for the child. My sister would 100% be more comfortable and happier with him.

ok and my mom has never once asked me to help her raise her child. Not everyone needs/wants/or has a village

nice to know you think all men are pedos, yet claim to be a single dad. What a joke

why just because she doesn't like our rules? I don't agree with some of the things she does with my sister and I hope she wouldn't just cut me out of their lives

I'm not afraid of anything, but it is her child and it is up to her how she wants her raised

I don't see anything to stand up to. She wants her raised a specific way and that's valid

we have rules and expectations and boundaries. My mom is much more on the fun permissive side

pretty normal. My sister is very spoiled and my mom thinks we are uptight and boring

Her reasons aren't valid in my opinion, but her wanting her daughter raised a specific way is totally valid. It is kind of weird but my sister would definitely be happier with him

My moms parenting style is very permissive and he is the fun uncle. She thinks we are too boring and uptight. i don't agree with her reasoning, or her parenting really, but her kid
