Oh wow... I didn't realize we had so much in common. My son is 7 as well, and his biological father, who dropped out of the picture about 4 years ago, has recently wanted to be back in his life. I'm remarried now (for 2.5 years) and his stepfather is basically his dad now. Every time my son had contact with my ex, he would act up and any progress we made would go down the tube. Last week my husband and I had a meeting with two of the elders at our church to get their advice on the entire thing (to make sure we were handling it properly). We came to the conclusion that now just isn't the best time to try to force them back together

You are right, although I am not forcing anything on my son. He wants to know his dad. He has been in and out. He would be there for a month and then disapear....
The problem I run into is that although my son wants a relationship with his real dad he is now pushing his stepdad out. His stepdad has been more of a father than his real dad...
I just wish there was a easy answer....you know? I was hoping it would all work out since, me, my husband and my sons father are all friends, we get along great...but i am so not sure now...
