My mother and father divorced about 45 years ago when I was very small. And they both remarried other wonderful stepparents. To this day, we ALL attend family birthdays, weddings, etc. together, and we share the same dinner table too. One time my dad and step mom even let my mom and her mother stay overnight on their way to another state. Everybody refers to my family as a 'functional - dysfunctional family' .... and I LOVE IT.

What a great guy :) This is exactly what I teach both my kids and exactly what I tell people when they criticise me for being in such a great friend based relationship with the mother of my children , even though we are not together. I tell them she gave me two beautiful children who we both adore and what's good for her is also good for them.

45 years after my parents divorced, my father to this day has NEVER ONCE spoke a bad word about my mother. I am so proud of my dad for being a true man about their problems and not dumping them on us 2 kids. YOU ROCK Benedict for doing something very difficult but greatly rewarded!

I think the original guy is great, good on him for what he is doing. Some of the responses to what he's doing you included seem to miss the point, because they go out of their way to say bad things about the ex, before humble bragging. Kids know if you're faking it. You either respect your ex or don't.
