Well this is my first post so here goes. I have looked over a few of the other threads and have not seen much about single fathers. I do NOT mean the dads that just have children every other weekend. I am talking about individuals like myself. Who get up at around 4 am get the kids to school by 530 so we can be at our desks by 6. Work all day pick them back up, cook dinner, do damage control, baths, then maybe around 8pm peace and quiet. (then do homework online school rocks! )
Ok that being said my question is three parts. First part – How much information should I divulge about the kids, as this seems to be the very second question right behind WHERE is the mom?
Second – how much should I go into about their mother, as this is usually the first question I am asked.
Third – every woman and I mean every – if they are willing to go out and everything seems great until we have to go out with the kids. Then literally, I never hear from them again. No calls, no email, no TXT. I don’t want to be rude or a stalker, but come on here we are adults right? In addition, no my kids are not that bad but they are young. Well I am seriously thinking about making my Master’s thesis about the way single mothers are looked at as opposed to single fathers.
I would hope it is not how I am presenting the information, but I am an open book honest and up front. You want sugar coating then go to Willy Wanaka, you want the truth and honesty, and well frankly, I think individuals say that out one side of their mouths until they get it then all lips are sealed and it is abandon ship. Any thoughts out there?
First of all your comments about being a single Dad and doing everything for your 4 kids, is comendable, but please remember single Moms have been doing this for years, (without any fanfare!) so what makes you so special? Because your a man, you should get a medal for doing this?

2nd of all, Why would you take your date out with your 4 kids?? 4 young kids and you drag them out on a date with you? I don't blame these woman for running!
And Thirdly, why are you exposing your young children to these woman when you have barely met them? Are you looking for a partner or a maid?
