If you’re a single parent or dating one, here’s a dating myth to avoid.
Our culture tries to convince us that personal happiness is at the center of life. For example, the divorce culture says, “If I’m not happy in my marriage why should I have to stay?” and single parents sometimes think, “If I’m in love and happy, my kids will be happy, too.” But there is no guarantee your romance will improve the lives of your children; in fact, your happiness can bring great unhappiness to your kids. So pursue romance but carefully consider how it’s impacting your children.
