Children Disapproving of Your Dating

Do not give your children the power to prevent you from developing relationships with other people. It is natural for them to be a little possessive of you and to instantly dislike your dating. They may still secretly be clinging to the false hope that you and your ex might get back together and that you will be a family again. If that is the case, you need to explain to them that this is not a possibility. Be open and honest with your children.
