my parents hated my now husband, they took my car took my house and lost out on a wonderful grandsons first 10 years. My bf was an ex convict they never bothered to ask why or whatever they just hated him. so they made me choose and i chose my husband thank god. years went by and yes it does cause tension they are after all your parents and as children we strive for their approval but we too become adults follow your heart and if they see you are happy even if it takes 10 years why should you give up the rest of your life with someone when we all have to leave home eventually. my parents got to know my husband when my father developed cancer. for 2 years the man they hated took care of everything for them and they realized that when it comes down to it ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE ME. good luck and I hope they come around sooner than mine did.

Comes a point in time where you have to break from the family and get on with your life as best as you see fit. It is your decision, and you have to honestly weigh all the options--ALL of them. Your family will still love you--you aren't a baby so make the adult decisions here. Good luck and I wish you a happy future.

For starters he should be taking care of his child with the other girl. that is where he belongs. He made a child with another girl he should be there. Your parents may think that you don't need to jump into a relationship with someone who has a child with someone else. That is not an easy relationship.

your parents want the best for you and whether you want to believe it or not, they are probably right.....don't let any man or any person come between you and your family...you will regret doing that for the rest of your life....if you really feel that he is a good guy and that your parents have misjudged him, then sit and talk calmly and like an adult with your parents...ask them to please get to know him before passing judgement and then see if they will invite him for dinner and an evening of conversation...good luck

ok your family are triying to protect you and don't hate them they are only doing what they feel is best but you need to think about this you love your parents but sorry to say but unless something happens like a car accidend (touch wood) your parents will age and eventually die and who are you left with? really our parents will complaine about anyone we're with and if we all waited for their full approval we'd all die alone.
but if he is much older than you and you are a kid, well sorry to say but take your parents advise or at least listen to them and think about it.

They took one look at him and didn't like him. Parents have good instincts when it comes to their children.
