Family Ties

Since over a third of all children can expect to live in a stepfamily at some time during their childhood, blended families that co-parent are becoming the new normal. This seminar illustrates that handled in a consistent and loving way, managing children in blended environments can allow both children and parents to thrive. You will learn tips for custody and visitation schedules, school meetings, and managing the child's medical needs. The seminar will lead you through the developmental stages of blended families, from fantasy expectations and subsequent conflicts to the development of new roles and norms that coalesce into a strong blended family. You will learn the power of consistent rules and chores to help build positive family routines that boost each child's self-esteem and sense of responsibility. The seminar will conclude with resources to support new families, from lists of helpful children's books to community resources and services to ease family conflicts.
