Family2000onwards.com "This is a lighthearted look at a serious subject. The author, a single mom with children, considers what a man needs to know if he thinks he is falling in love with a single woman who has children. There are guidelines and tips on how to build a lasting relationship with someone who has children to consider. The cheerful approach of this book contains a lot of sensible advice about how - among other issues - to get to know the children (slowly) and whether or not the new man on the scene has the right to discipline (he doesn't). Dufayet, speaking from her own experience, spells out what a single mother wants from a new relationship. She reminds us all that 'love is a process' and the more we understand about it, the more chance there is that we will find a lasting, happy relationship.
