writes: I am in a serious relationship with a recently divorced, older man whom I love very much. He is the father of three children and he has indicated that he is not wild about the idea of a fourth child, but he has not stated that the possibility is out of the question. I very much want to have a child. We are not engaged yet, and before that happens I'd like to discuss how we both feel about the issue of kids, but I'm not sure how to approach the subject. Any ideas?
