Product Description
What you need to know about your new family before you become part of it. How to get off to the right start. (It's hard to change a relationship once you've taken the path of least resistance.) How to prevent, rather than cure, the stepmom's classic pitfalls. What you need to recognize about your relationship with your husband's children. How to handle relationships between your kids and his. Why you need to give your marriage top priority. How to make sure others are aware that this is your life too.

How to overcome the guilt of not loving -- or even liking -- your stepchildren. How to avoid feeling guilty in circumstances over which you have no control. Why a successful stepfamily is as unique as every stepmom.
