On this episode we dive into dealing with only children; the struggle is REAL!  Having a child who’s an only child in one home and then a step sibling in the other creates a difficult dynamic to parent, coparent and step parent.  Being an only child yourself and having to parent your children’s sibling rivalries can be down right overwhelming.  You know what else can be overwhelming; difficult teenagers!  We talk about how to deal with teens who lie and are two-faced trouble makers; being a step parent in that situation is down right hard!  Speaking of hard, child support is no joke.  Deciding how to utilize it in a way that honors the children it’s intended for can be dicey when different opinions of what that looks like in blended family life exist.  We talk about a couple of different perspectives to consider.  Enjoy!

Because we believe that we can do better than what statistics say about second marriages lasting, about blending families making it, that’s why! A 70% divorce rate statistic for remarriages with children is simply unacceptable! Spreading life lessons, passing along wisdom gained from experience and bringing to light what is often happily left in the dark to hide, is how we all can learn to be better, to do better the second time around (in a blended family many lives depend on it). Together we can avoid costly mistakes that will end in the demise of our precious families. -Blended Life
