I have been with my partner for 9 months now and recently we have started living together. I already have 2 young children from a previous relationship and their father is still a huge part of their lives. He is a good dad and role model for them and I wouldnt want it any other way.
I have a few questions as to how things work regarding the children when you live with someone who is not their father, for example, should I expect him to help out with them? How involved with their lives should I expect him to be?
And also im finding myself feeling occassionally resentful that when we are invited to a party or whatever, he can go and I cant because I dont have a babysitter. I find myself thinking that we should stay in together if we cant both go but then realising that my children are my responsibility and not his - but should they be now?
This is my first relationship since splitting with there dad, I think you can tell
TIA
