Personally, I am not married so i am not divorced and should not know much about effects of divorce or what happens when children meet the other woman. From an outsider's point of view, I would say that it does not matter. Much of it depends on the child's age and if the other woman is nice and what kind of person the children's mother is.

I have a cousin whose parents are divorced and their father is gettin married to another woman. My cousin is 16 years old and he has two younger siblings; a 13 year old brother and a 9 year old sister. Currently, they are staying with their mother. I am very close to this cousin of mine and he tells me everything.

His parents were divorced a few years ago and my uncle started dating again. His fiance is the 2nd woman he dated. Even though my cousins were very young, they accepted things easily. They got along very well with both women that he dated. They are exceptionally close to his fiance.

She relates to them easily and she tends to understand them better. They turn to her when they have problems and can open up easily to her. The little girl is very affectionate towards her and the boys respect her and are close to her.

Their mother is nice but she has an attitude problem and is very temperamental. She does not spend much time with her children and is hardly at home. My cousins are not as close to her as they are with my uncle's fiance. She adds on to my cousin's stress by blaming him for things he did not do. She watches porn in front of her son and sort of tempts him to watch but does not bother to explain to him. They got a divorce because she used a knife to hurt herself and blamed it on my uncle.

So I from what I have seen, It does not matter about the children meeting the other woman. Is the age and what a person is like. It is difficult for one child to like you. But in this case, all three children love her.
