Stepparenting can be very discouraging. Sooner or later every stepparent feels trapped. Often nothing they do or say is right. And when things get tough, stepparents are often shocked at their own lack of love for the child. Even though stepparenting can be extraordinarily rewarding, it can also be a demoralizing, guilt-ridden prison.

This book offers the freeing answers to some of the most common questions stepparents ask. Speaking from over sixteen years of experience in a blended family, and supported by a biblical perspective, Margaret Broersma confronts the many challenges and gives hope to stepparents who may feel alone in their struggle to blend.One out of every three Americans is part of a stepfamilyWritten by a veteran stepparentNot only is this book biblical, it's very practical and readableThis book shows stepparents, who desperately need empathy, that they aren't alone in their struggle
