Always a Mom First
Thanks for this article. When my husband and I divorced, I thought I'd never date. Then, when my daughters hit their teens, they were both always scheming to get me to go out on dates. Looking back, I suspect they thought that if I were out in the dating scene, I would get some perspective on their dating lives and lighten up a bit on curfews, stop insisting on meeting the boys they were dating, etc. At the very least, they'd get me out of the house. Although I did date a couple of men in those days, I'm proud to say that I didn't get so wrapped up in my own dating life that I stopped paying attention to my daughters' dating lives.
