This bears repeating because children are not baggage. If someone's relationship with their child is hampering a relationship, then that parent isn't in a place to be in a new relationship and shouldn't be dating. If one finds themselves in a relationship with someone whose relationship is hampering forward movement, then recognize that this person isn't in a place to be who you need for them to be and move on to find someone who is in the requisite place. But spitting on an innocent child by calling them baggage is really unbecoming a mature adult.

 

Kids are a product of something that did not work out between two adults. They should never be considered of baggage. That's like demonizing them, and expecting that they're nothing but a pain in the arse and getting in the way of two adults.
