"This is the perfect resource for all who are considering stepfamily living or have already committed. It is not just a book about stepfamilies but instead a detailed manual on how to create a strong stepfamily unit. The ideas and strategies are clear and compelling. Be prepared to enjoy coming home!"

This excellent book should be required reading for all those considering remarriage with children. It covers the 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..."
