So, why not join in the discussion? If you want to ask your question, the process is easy and offers notification options when someone comments on your story.
The idea here is -
Ask one, Answer one!
Maybe you need help figuring out how to help your kids accept your new spouse, but have mastered the art of managing all the schedules in your household... Or maybe your marriage is struggling a bit due to all the stressors, but you've learned how to co parent well with your ex...
Go ahead and ask whatever questions you have about blended family problems. Then pay it forward by offering some help to other families.
Just think about how happy you'll be when you receive help from other families and couples who've "been there and done that"...
This Help Line is primarily a helpful forum where remarried parents and couples post and answer questions. I am also a family life coach who specializes in working with parents and families after divorce. I will try to add my help as much as possible. There is, however no way I can answer all questions, but I try to prioritize new and/or urgent issues.
Sound fair?
