hi, im interested to know what people think of surnames of parent and child being different.my surname is because i married my husband but because we are divorced i am really known by a different last name . with 4 children i feel if i change back to my maiden name the childrens friend will ask why, mum, step dad and kids all have different name. what should i do. it also upsets my boyfriend when i sign my married name on forms, when ive been divorced for over a year.
I think that you should do what you feel comfortable with. Growing up my mother and father were never married so I had my moms maiden name and when she married my step father, I never took on his last name so between my mom, dad and step dad, I had a different last name. I did get a lot of comments/questions but I don't think it made anyone ever think too hard about it. Don't lose any sleep, just use your gut instinct and do what your comfortable with!
