no I would not feel obligated. However, I would've probably established a bond and wouldn't feel right letting them go without something they needed. I would love to keep in touch with them and make sure they are doing well, and all. I wouldnt feel obligated, But I wouldnt let them go without does that make sense?
And to explain to next bf or gf? I dont think you should have to, I mean its the kids, not your ex your helping, ya know?

yeah I understan where you are coming from. I have a friend and she was married like ten years and when the man left her he cut the kids out of his life. This has a lasting affect on the klids the daughter who is now grown and has a child of her own cries and worries that this will happen to her child when she gets married. My friend cussed her ex husband out and said he was wrong for not being there for her kids after they divorced.

sometimes what people do not realize is that when you marry someone with children it is a package deal, and the kids form a bond, you do not have to be around your ex, but being there for the kids you formed a bond with isnt an obligation, but a blessing. Ya know?

I did just that, and I did not feel at all obligated to support the kids. Their natural father is legally and morally responsible for them.
