Thanks, San, can't wait to hear if he's closed his fb. Then we'll know why, I think.

Oh, Lawd, help us all. What a hottie/cutie. And his little boy is precious. Wonder if he's widowed, divorced, or never married the mom?

Sorry, I completely disagree about Emily needing a guy with a child. The chances are already so slim for anything working out; they're just compounding problems adding in children!! I would hope that most fathers now share custody; it wouldn't be good for him to move away and as we saw, Emily isn't going to be all that willing to move. no no

Doug is a very good start, and set the bar high from what we know about him already. jmo

I admire the sleuthing capabilities of everyone, but IMO it's not a good idea to be posting the kids' pictures and names.

The dad signed up to be on the show, not the kids.

Aww. How cute would they be with Emily and Ricki? I kind of hope she picks someone with a child this time around.

I respect your opnion but i think of it as the dad was the one who put the pictures up on the internet....it is not like I am giving out personal information that could harm (address, school, social security number) anybody. It is information that will eventually get out. JMHO

If San and Love_Me have a problem issue with it, they can delete my post because I cannot! handwave

Some more about Doug. He is a board member and advisor at a Montessori school too. Smiley

January 6, 2012 - Passing of Douglas Clerget (Senior)
Mr. Douglas Clerget (Senior) passed away. Mr. Clerget (Sr) is the grandfather of our alumni and Board Member Doug Clerget (Junior). Our hearts go out to their family as they grieve for their loss. Mr. Clerget (Sr) was very active in the Federal Way community, and had much influence on how the city has been grown and been developed.

Doug Clerget (Jr) is also the co-founder of Dollar Per Month (DPN) -- a ground-breaking charity that allows you to donate the amount of money you can afford to charity (as little as $1 per month). Through the DPN web site, the members vote for one of three charities. The winning charity receives 50% of the community funds. The 2nd place charity receives 30%, and the 3rd place charity receives 20%, so no charity loses.

Doug is not just an alumni of our school, or just a board member, he is like family to us. This is a very worthwhile charity, and we encourage you to take a look, and tell your friends:

ITA! Emily wants the focus to be on her and Ricki and that's it, not on the man's child. No judgment, she should get what she wants if she's willing to look for it in a man, but I don't think a single dad devoted to his own kid(s) is the right fit in the very least.

Wow sooo many opinions if a guy is right for her if he has a kid or not. I am going to toss my 2cents in on this one.

I think the guy that is right for her; will honor her, love her unconditionally and treat her with respect. period

If Emily falls in love and finds the right man for her and he happens to have a child then she will love that child as he will love hers.
