Yes I would. I love kids, would be the reason I have 3 of them. I have been with the same guy now for over 5 years. He has 4 kids...
The question is this: would you date a woman with kids?

In all honesty for something long term I would rather date a guy with no kids. It's only because it would be simpler. It would be the same with any situation where a potential partner has a lot of emotional bagage of any kind, family, ex girlfriends etc... It would be simpler without all the bagage. Having said that if I met a really great guy and he had kids I wouldn't reject him just for that. I do love kids. A lot of people say that but I really mean it. I've done volunteer work with kids for years. Anyway, the only way I would reject him for having kids is if his kids were really badly behaved and he didn't descipline them. Because I wouldn't want to have my own kids with someone like that. Or if his kids are from a previous marriage and he has huge issues with his ex wife. It might be indication of how he would act in our future relationship.
I guess I really can't give a yes or no answer. It would depend on the guy and the situation.

Theres a lot of things to consider in this. For example, does the guy have full custody of his children? Do they live with him? How old is this guy? Is he a good Father? Does he want more children? Is he supporting his children well enough? These are the questions that would dictate my decision as to whether or not I would date a guy with kids. If all of the answers lean more to my favor, and otherwise he is a good match for me, then heck yea, I'd date him! Another point, If a woman was a single Mom, I'm sure she wouldn't turn down a date from a single Dad!
For me, heres what I would want the answers to those above questions:
He has partial custody of his children
(this is for selfish reasons... right now, I want to be able to have time with a guy I date, and If he is a full time dad, then I would be second on his list)
Children may have bedrooms, but are only over once a week or so
(once again, for selfish reasons)
I would want the guy to be around my age (20-25)
Of course I would want him to be a good father, cuz then I'd know that he would raise MY children well!
He must want to have more children (I want some of my own!)
And lastly, he must be able to support his children with his current job... I don't want no lazy, guy askin me if he could borrow my money!!
Well I hope this all was at least a lil bit of help for ya!!
