Cupid’s Advice:
Choosing a partner who is right for you is hard enough, but when you add in choosing a partner who is right for your kids, it makes it even more difficult. Cupid has some tips:
1. Interest is shown:Â If your partner never asks about your kid(s) and seems to always want to get a babysitter, these may be signs that things aren’t headed in the right direction. But if they show an active interest in hearing the latest happenings about your child(ren) and want to spend time with them to get to know them, forge ahead!
