I'm 45 and have a 11 and 15 year old and most women my age their kids are older or even moved out of the house. I feel like a lot of women look at this as a down fall what are your thoughts?

Wow, I am reading a lot here about people having problems dating because they have kids. I just thought it was me and my age, because when a man my age finds out I have a 16-year-old at home they are no longer interested. I didn't know women were doing the same thing. I wouldn't have a problem dating someone with kids, and if someone does have a problem with the kids, they are not worth your time.
Keep looking. There are women out there that will accept you and your children.

Yooper: Yes, 100% agree. It's like Kryptonite for dating.
So we find someone with kids our age and she happens to be 10-25 years our junior then we're told "Oh you sick person, you just refuse to date someone your own age".
Sigh. Damned if we does and damned if we doesn't.

I'm 47 and have a 14 year old, a 12 year old, and a 11 year old.
Full custody,24/7
I wouldn't trade them for anything.
If it's because I have them, that I'm still single, then I'll take single any day of the week and twice on sundays.

I'm 43 and have 3 kids.. 14, 17 and 23. I think it's harder to date when you have kids, you have to work around schedules and even things like.. if the relationship gets serious when is the appropriate time to meet and all that jazz. I don't find it impossible.. harder yes not impossible.

My kids aren't with me all the time wish they were. But I understand a woman having kids

OP: I have two boys ages 15 & 13. I agree , with some its a bit of a stop sign / road block, etc. Myself,,I'm not about to change or stop me being a parent for anyone, for any relationship. The "single" in single-parent is the about the only thing I would change. Anyone that is truly Genuine,, will accept the fact you have kids. Those are the ones worth considering a keeper. Its not a downfall you having kids. Never. Don't let anyone tell you it is. Good luck op.

I am 38 with three boys aged 14, 12, and 11. I haven't been on a date in eleven years. Looking for someone to spend time with and more if we connect. I do not see that as a downfall at all.

OP I hear what ur saying. Being a 50 year old single mom of a 7 and 8 year old sons, I too wondered about this. Some ppl my age are not interested in helping raise young children at this junction in their life. I can appreciate that. The good news is that for the most part it has been a welcome opportunity as they too have children. There are more 40 to 50 somethings out there with young children than I ever imagined.
Hang in there

There you go...if you just listen to yourself and you know basic arithmetic then you could deduct the situation.
In plain English,it is forgivable to make mistakes when you're young,not so much when you're old because it announces to the population how undesirable your decision making is.
Of course this is not a blanket statement since mitigating circumstances allows for wiggle room. But statistically,by your own observation,this is the concensus.

I am 60. My youngest will be 10 next month; my oldest is nearly 40. For most of that time I have been single and with custody (through death and divorce) I really do not know what it is like to date without kids. Mine have always been in my life; my house and my mind. Tough perhaps in some ways, but for nearly all of my life they have kept me grounded. At times I have (and will again) felt tied down and suffering from the lack of spontaneity in my life. True. I just realized that I have perhaps missed out on quantity while my children have kept me focused on quality.

You have been luckier than most, Edward. You have missed out on nothing except some things even penacillin won't cure.
Keep going for the quality.
