From the Publisher
A seasoned stepparent and clinical psychologist offers stepparents a viable new alternative: taking control of their new position in the stepfamily and building a solid "family plan." Readers develop a personalized plan for blended family cohesion, and learn how to avoid feeling defensive, competitive, and alienated, build healthy relationships in the crucial first year, discipline the children, deal with the extended family, create new stepfamily traditions, and keep the marriage alive.
