Divorce and Stepfamilies

Many marriages in the United States end in divorce. Since most of those who get divorced will marry again, many children of divorce will need to adjust to stepfamilies. This book helps teens cope with the many changes that take place when their parents divorce and remarry, often including moves to new homes and dividing time between biological parents. Teens are encouraged to take the time to build good relationships with stepparents, stepsiblings, and in some cases, new half siblings, as well as strong relationships with their parents individually. Readers will feel supported and less alone as they cope with their own emotions and navigate these challenging life transitions.
