is it ok 4 your kids to call ur boy friend daddy?

Answer 1

who's your daddy

Answer 2

In my opinion, I wouldn't allow that so soon in a relationship because you guys don't really know each other & aren't "stable" yet to allow your kids to get that "attached" to him yet. I would say after at 2 or 3 years have gone by and if you guys are still together, along w/the biological father not being around(dead or alive) emotionally, physically etc. for them, then I would say that could work and be okay to do. But still, don't let them go overboard and expect so much from him to go along w/that title either. Just watch it and moderate that situation too so your kids once again, don't get TOO "attached" 'cuz you never know what could happen between the relationship.

Answer 3

I think it depends on a lot of things. If it's a long term relationship, is the real daddy in their lives, does he mind? If he's planning on being around it may be good, but uncle might be better. Also if the real dad isn't a dead beat think about how you would feel if your kids called someone else mommy.

Answer 4

I would say only if it is serious. You don't want guys coming in and out of their life. I would wait till you date at least a year or are even married to the guy before you let them call him daddy. Just be careful, as I said you don't want to let them down.

Answer 5

it's okay if you plan on keeping him around.
it's not healthy if you plan on going on to another potential daddy!

Children don't learn the word
daddy" unless it is taught to them. Please don't make your child call someone dad, daddy, or da da if you don't intend on keeping your signifigant other.
If they are old enough and understand what a daddy really is or rather a father...then it's okay but don't let them misunderstand a "daddy figure" that will hurt them in the end when and/if you decide to leave your b/f!!! If they are old enough they wil eventually ask where there soo called daddy is?

and where is the rea\l daddy? if you don't mind me asking you missy?

Answer 6

I believe that it is ok because of society or the environment that you live in. I'm a college student and I've noticed many interracial relationships on campus. Good for them, they should be happy, but outside of campus and in my home town, people view it as a strange weird thing. I think that students and teenagers are making things like calling their boyfriends "daddy" seem like its normal. It is just another phase.

Answer 7

my boyfriend is their daddy. I don't think it is appropriate unless you know he will be their daddy for the rest of their lives. It isn't fair to them, especially if they already had a daddy bail out on them. It will just make them feel as though it is their fault, which, by all means, should never occur if you do the right things to prevent it.

Answer 8

well yeah if the kids are keen to do that and bf's cool with that.. and if bf plans of being a round for the long haul..why the hell not.. real daddy will get over it .. if he's around.. he should be gratefull ya kids love ya bf so much.. my girl has never known her daddy and she told me she wants to call my bf dad but she's a bit shy just yet.. so we're cool with whatever she's comfy with//

Answer 9

I do not like to see that. The only way I would allow my children to call a man other than their father daddy is if he is a worthy, loving STEPFATHER. If not, I would not allow it at all. You don't know how long you will be with this man and that is very confusing to children.

Answer 10

No, not unless you are seriously planning on getting married (and even then, I would wait until you are married). You don't want to unnecessarily confuse your kids if you and your boyfriend split... and then there will be a new daddy.

Answer 11

I'm sure that he's there for you and you're just taking the kids along for the ride. But as a child of a family where my mother kept bringing guys over, I must say, find someone who your kids like. After all, they didn't ask to come into this world, did they?
