Quoting .Theresa.:“ No ex-girlfriend will ever have a say in my childs life. Nor will any future girlfriends or wives. I mean..if me and my hubby were to break up that is. But..I agree.”
You say that now, but what if down the road you and your SO break up/divorce, and you re-marry to a wonderful man who has FULL custody of his children, and the 'mother' is in the picture somewhat, but isnt responsible at all when it comes for the care of/well being of her children, and your SO relies on you to help with them. Then you will be the 'other wife/girlfriend' with the opinion. Be.c when you get so attached to the kids, you only want the best for them, and if that means having a different opinion than the ex-wife or ex-girlfriend, then i think its a bit different, and it matters VERY much
