Synopsis

A clinical psychologist helps stepparents come to terms with their new role and take steps to create a cohesive blended family. Based on her research as a clinical psychologist and her experience as a seasoned stepparent, author Suzen Ziegahn has found that stepparents who just try to "fit in" to an existing family often fail to create the happy family situation they had hoped for. In The Stepparent's Survival Guide, Ziegahn offers stepparents a viable new alternative: to take control of their new position in the stepfamily and build a solid "family plan" for the future. Chock full of assessment questions and fill-in exercises, the Guide's workbook format makes it easy for stepparents to learn how to avoid feeling defensive and competitive, build healthy relationships in the first year, discipline the children, deal with the extended family, keep the marriage alive, and create new stepfamily traditions.
