He should lay it on the line in some similar fashion I'd suggest.

A friend of mine suggested a similar thing to him. She suggested that he sit down with this woman and explains to her exactly what he will or will not do as far as parenting her and what his expectations are. He said he was considering it and needed to really think about it. His worry is that if he lays down the law she will leave him. I told him that is part of deal. If she is going to leave him because of this it doesn't bode well for the future.
