I am a single parent to 2 children aged 6 and 3. They live with me permanently and stay with their father every other weekend.
I am in a relationship which is becoming serious. He has met my DCs a few times but soon we will be living in the same time so we will be seeing a lot more of each other.
I have never been in this position before and whilst it is too early to talk about the concept of step-parenting I am mindful that he will be a male role model in their lives at te very least. I am looking for ideas to make this as easy for the DCs as possible - so would love to hear suggestions on how to make this work and what I should think of.
