At what point do you let your kids know you and your S.O are sleeping in the same bed?

Donna,
I think you need to ask them why they don't want you dating. It is probably some silly little (little to us but BIG to them) reason that you can dispel.
Also, kids are very perceptive and maybe they saw how upset you got towards the end.
When I was dating Shane, we spent every weekend together, well most weekends. I spent the night when Dylan was away, but eventually we became more serious and we'd stay together even if D was here. I'd just take D with me and we'd all go out and have fun and D would "camp" in the living room in a tent we made for him and we'd keep the bedroom door cracked open and he was always cool with staying there. He loved it. He also liked for Shane to come stay with us.
Once we were engaged, we moved in together and like Alison said, the transition was smooth.

I don't recall ever making an announcement that D and I were going to sleep in the same bed together. It just was what it was. By the time D and I started having "sleep overs" when the kids were around, they all knew eachother pretty well and were comfortable with eachother. If we stayed over at D's for the weekend, the boys would sleep in their room and dd would sleep in the D's bed with me. She was on one side of me and D was on the other. Nothing kinky would go on at that point obviously!
When D and the boys stayed at my place, the kids all "camped out" in the living room and D and I shared the bedroom. They actually had alot of fun.
In fact, even now that we all live together and they have their own rooms to retreat to, they still like to "camp out" in the living room with makeshift tents and popcorn and stuff. I have to watch them pretty carefully incase they try build a fire and roast marshmallows or something! LOL
