“This excellent book should be required reading

essentials for creating a successful stepfamily.” —

"...a
very clear course through the complex areas of remarriage, loyalty
conflicts amongst children, unresolved emotions, unrealistic
expectations, building bonds, communication and dealing effectively
with discipline.
The format is easily used in a family situation or in therapy. I
highly recommend it to every stepfamily, and anyone who works with
them..."
