People are always concerned about when they (or their ex) should introduce the kids to a person they are dating. I advise my clients that they should introduce the children only when they are sure that this is a person to whom they are committed and believe they will be dating for quite some time. This article is a good summary explaining when and how you can introduce the kids to your new girlfriend/boyfriend.

The author comments, and I agree, that it is not in the best interest of your children to introduce them to many different girlfriends/boyfriends. Children are already feeling anxious about the divorce and introducing them to someone new quickly is not a good idea either for your children, or for the success of your children's relationship with your new significant other. I encourage you to date, or not date, as you like- you are no longer married, you are out of a bad relationship and you have the freedom to find who you are and what you're looking for so enjoy this new found freedom! However, for your benefit and for the children, wait until you know that you are serious before introducing them to someone new.
Take care,
Allison
