Can I do anything to keep my ex from introducing our 6&10 yr old daughters to...

[Toni]

...EVERY girl he dates? My ex-husband moves VERY fast in relationships and thinks our 6 and 10 year old daughters should know who he is with. The problem is the girls get attached to someone and then she is gone. I am left to put the peices back together and he sees no problem with this. I live in Illinois and cannot find a law to support us nor is anything specific in our Joint Parenting Agreement on this subject. HELP PLEASE!!!!!!

Nope, you can't. it is his choice, he is an adult and can make his own decisions.

you may want to consider modifying the parenting agreement for the sake and emotional well being of your children with a parent who dates often or at least take the girls to a counselor to see how this affects them overall..professional opinions are important and can be used in court if there are signs of emotional stress on the girls..but consult a a lawyer first..

Not much you can do about it. I agree with you, my kids have never met my boyfriend because I wont introduce them to anyone that I wont marry. It makes no sense, what he is doing, but you can't control it, you can only talk to him, but you see where that gets you.

Ask him to not introduce them to someone that he is dating unless he has been in the relationship for at least 3mths with that person and plans on it being a long relationship.Tell ur girls that that is just a girl dad is friends with for a little while

tell him the marriage was a failure but parenthood doesn't have to be, yes even though the divorce was wanted mutually i'm talking about the state of matrimony having failed.
the only respectable decent thing he can do now is protect his young daughters from being exposed to his many girlfriends.
this teaches kids not to invest in people emotionally, and that relationships can be cheapened.
