WEll I think you should consider these issues.
She may in this relationship with you because she does not want to be alone. She still has feelings for the father of her son, and that is also a good reason for her to continue to see him, in one capacity or another. How will you feel about that. There is no way this can be avoided. The child has a right to contact with both of his parents, no matter how each adult involved feels. So you will have to be dealing with her having contact with the father of the boy. Also, depending on her ethnic background, and the customs of her up-bringing. They may put a GREAT emphasis on "family". Even if the father is not a good, someday he may want them to be a family again, will she leave you so that they can make a family for their son?
There is no guarantee. She could grow to love you and realize that you are the better choice and a good influence on her son, and someone that she wants him to grow up to be like.
But is could easily go the other way. There is no way to tell for sure. But since you are asking, you have to ask yourself (in fact you can ONLY ask yourself and decide for yourself) if you are prepared to deal with the outcome, no matter what it is. Because you do have an alternative, and that is to find someone who does not have any children and start your own family.
