I've been around the O-T long enough to understand that I'll get some stupid or disingenuous responses. However, I have received enough positive responses to completely offset those responses. For those of you who have given me positive responses, I thank you. For those who haven't, please understand that life will take many different turns you will not see. Those turns will most certainly happen. The degree of those turns will depend on choices you may not see clearly until much later.

See, that's your problem. You only want to hear the attaboys.

And those are fine.

But the Ones that you really need to listen to are the ones warning you of what's gonna happen. Because they've seen it happen.

You don't want to think about it but protecting yourself and your kid NOW is gonna pay dividends later.

If you don't safeguard against the mom, who has shown a pattern of behavior, you'll regret it.

I am half trolling about the mom, but in seriousness be all business with her. This is a woman that let a man bond with a kid for three years to only devastated him when she literally revealed he was a cuck.

Respect the danger she is to you, and be polite and nice that is it. Be there for the kid.

It is outstanding of you to have this response to your situation and to step up to the plate. Many people continue to be douches even after paternity tests and never really parent successfully because they resent the baby's mother. It seems like you are truly interested in doing what is best for your child and in that sense you probably don't need much advice from this board at all. Kudos to you for being a great parent, even if you are new at this.

Well I'm not trying to say anything negative towards you or misogynistic towards her, this is about human nature. It's totally against human nature for her to approach you after all this time. Normal people don't do something like this to a 3 year old, no matter how bad they were wrong before he was born, unless they have an ulterior motive. The simplest, easiest and probably best thing for that child would have been to just let everyone keep thinking her ex was his father. There's a reason she came to you and it isn't a good one. You need to understand that and be prepared for the problems she will give you. It's like you not only got an instant son, you got an instant ex wife too.
