Q. What is your opinion of dating a girl with a baby?

A. An ideal question for today, isn't it? Not Christmas magic - I cheated and saved it from the 21st.

It is difficult. The baby, or the toddler, or the child take priority. Always. That is right and just and exactly as it should be, but it really, really cramps your style. Going out on a date more challenging than a walk in the park with the stroller becomes an exercise that they should use at Royal Canadian Miltary college to teach the cadets logistics.

Some guys can't take it. Some gals can't take it either - the reverse happens too, though it is more usually guy with a child rather than a baby.

Now, not being able to take it doesn't make them shallow, vapid, self centered people who want all the attention for themselves. I see that sort of charge get thrown around too often as it is. It just means they are not ready.

Problem is, no one knows if they are ready or not until they try it.

So - go on dates. Be up front about the baby and the fact that the baby's needs are going to be the dominant factor in your dating for a fair while (the next 18 or so years). There will always be guys interested. You may as well have some fun too, right?
