1. Make sure they’re in it for the long haul:Â Before letting your partner meet your children, there are a few things you need to make sure of. Firstly, make sure this person is in this relationship for the long haul. You don’t want to introduce your kids to someone that’s going to disappear in a month’s time.

2. Set some boundaries:Â It’s also important to set a few limitations before letting your partner have a role in your kids’ lives. Maybe have them around only a few times a week, and gradually introduce the idea of your lover being around as your children get more comfortable. It is crucial to listen to your kids’ opinions and needs before getting caught up in anything.

3. Take it slow:Â Most importantly, remember that there’s absolutely no need to rush into anything. Take things one step at a time, and base it off of your level of comfort, along with your partner’s and your children’s. Things will work out as time progresses, but don’t feel obligated to rush it just because you want a family dynamic.
