I have often thought of this one, I know my mother would never re-marry but my father is a possibility, I am not sure how i would feel, but it would certainly depend on the person he chose to marry, if i liked her and she was a good person i would do my best to accomodate her into the family and make her feel welcome, of course it would be hard and she could never replace my lost parent, but i would try and think about my parents happiness, however my parents are getting on in years and really i am not sure this would even happen to either of them.

Having said that however my uncle in Scotland re-married after my aunty took her own life, it was only about 2 years afterwards, his family have learned to accept it and she is a lovely person, my mother likes her too, but has some difficulties, as it is not the same for her anymore and she is very different to her sister and my own mother in her ways and personality,they come over for regular visits now, and my mother really does not have the same excitement about seeing them, as it just reminds her of the fact her sister who she was extremely close to is no longer here.
