Healthy Stepfamilies Know These 4 Dynamics Don’t Exist In Bio-Families

The Whole Stepfamily

If we pretend that blended families are the same as biological intact families, then we are failing to respect the unique vulnerabilities only found within this family type. With 2 in every 3 stepfamilies expected to fail, we are being called to acknowledge and tend to our unique relationship dynamics in a loving and supportive way.

Knowing what makes a stepfamily different from a nuclear (aka intact, biological, traditional, first) family will equip you with invaluable knowledge and a new perspective that allows for more love, harmony, and authenticity at home -- for The Whole Stepfamily

In this episode, we'll examine:

• The most critical differentiator between stepfamilies and biological intact families
• What makes stepfamilies so vulnerable and WHY we must take radical personal responsibility for our children's (and our own) sake
• The critical developmental task in stepfamily that will help you to establish safety, structure and predictability in a blended family
• How biology affects family roles and the development of functional step-relationships
• The social expectation that stepparents love their stepchildren "like their own"
• The experience of being an outsider and how it relates to each stepfamily member's role
