What’s your opinion on dating someone with kids?

This is something that I have thought about a lot, especially now that I’m dating someone who has a 4 year old daughter. I never thought I would date a guy with kids but it’s actually not as bad as I thought it would be. But when I tell friends about his daughter, they get so shocked and ask “How does THAT work??” or “How do you deal with that??” Like...what?? Why is it such a big deal or a shocker? His daughter is a sweetheart and a cutie pie. I feel like maybe a lot of women aren’t ok with dating a guy with kids cause they don’t wanna deal with baby mama drama? But his baby mama literally doesn’t do shit. She leaves us alone, so there’s nothing for me to complain about. What are your thoughts on this and if you personally would never date someone with kids, what are your reasons?
