STEPFAMILY ASSOCIATION

You and your spouse, if you want to build a caring and loving blended family, must hold the center spot of your new step family.

 

On the surface, this may seem selfish, especially if both of you have biological children from previous marriages.

You know how hard it has been on your children to go through the wrench of divorce or, maybe, the death of a parent. You know they still suffer in many ways, but you have found a partner for a new life for you and your children, and you are happy.

Be aware that your remarriage probably feels like just another unasked for change to their lives. They very likely feel that it is just not fair.
