DESCRIPTION

Synopsis from the back of the book:

Blended families face the daunting task of building new lives together while sorting through a rapid river of struggles. New roles, new rules, new stepparents, stepchildren or stepsiblings - so much change can threaten to overturn adults and children alike if relationships are not handled with wisdom, delicacy and patience.

Packed with honest stories from children in blended families and advice from a host of trusted experts - like Tim Clinton, Gary Oliver, Norman Wright and others - Raising Children in Blended Families plots a course through such topics as childhood grief, anger, overcoming abue, what kids need most in a parent or stepparent, and how to handle conflict.

Full of solid, hope-filled answers to the common questions that arise, this book steers parents through the rocky waters of parenting a blended family.
