After a decade of writing and speaking about stepfamilies, Margaret Broersma, herself a veteran stepparent, has received her fair share of letters on the subject. Parents asking for advice on everything from what their new stepkids should call them (dad? mom? first name?) to advice on extreme discipline problems.
In Stepparent to Stepparent, Margaret answers fifty such questions with a mixture of practical advice and sound Biblical truths. If you are a stepparent or about to become one, you'll benefit from this candid discussion of the issues of blending families.
