I am 25 yrs old an dhave a 3 yr old little boy. I have a lot of male friends, and they are strictly friends. Sometimes on the weekends they come to my house to watch the game and my son loves them. Is this ok you think?

I think it's fine. Dylan knew Shane while he was just a friend of mine and he just hung out with us and we'd have lunch and just do fun stuff. He never held my hand or made like he was my bf even though he wanted to. Dylan wasn't confused at all. I think if you behave as if you are just friends, then your child will see it as just that. Of course you have to be careful, but having friends is healthy and your child should see that you can be social and enjoy company at the house and the fact that he's included just makes it better for him!

I think it's fine if you have friends over. I mean, as long as they are good people and not getting stinking drunk or smoking in your house.
