Where the Conversation Is

One of my favorite things about Daytipper is that the conversation doesn't end once you submit your tip. The conversation just begins! There are at least two sides to every tip. Let's take a look at what some Daytippers are talking about, and then we encourage you to jump in on the debate.

Anonymous says: Avoid dating a man with kids
If you are a single woman without any kids, should you date a man with kids? If you want to get serious and marry someday, it is best to avoid the man who has already been to the circus. He is not looking for wifey #2. You will never be their mom, and you will never be his wife. Find a single guy to marry and have your own kids together. Take it from someone who knows.


Please understand that when Daytipper publishes a tip, they are not endorsing the idea. The above tip is clearly a generalization that you can choose to agree or disagree with. For example:

Kevin from Lynchburg, Virginia says: Wow, how prejudiced. I'd have to say this qualifies more as a bigoted slam than a tip. Such generalizations are damaging to the progress humanity has made over the past 50 years.

But...

Amber from Norman, OK says: I'm single, but I know someone who went through what you just said. Sure, it sounds prejudice, but in some cases it is true.

We're up to 18 comments and counting. While the majority of folks seem to disagree with the "tip," it undoubtedly has generated a conversation. And when "bigotry" or "hatred" is concerned, isn't that a good thing.

We want to know what you think. Should women avoid dating a man with kids?
