You are a Leader! As a Step Parent, Single Parent or
Child in a family invornment that the lable makers say is not a
neclear family, a "normal family". Let's take
the stigma out of all this. It is time that Biological Parents,
Step Parents, Step Children and Biologal Children step up and show
the world that we may have not been born into a "Cleaver
Family" but we ARE just as perocious and commited to our
Family Units and our Children and Step Children! It is time that we
Unite and show the world that WE DO COUNT and we contribut to our
Communities e are PROUD of our Families! We as Step and Extended as
well as Single Parent Families have to fight twice as hard to
servive! Unique situations, resources that are real and available,
support is in demand and it is about time our communites stand up
and listen!
If you have any ideas that can help, please respond to this post.
We need to get information into the schools for Step Family Life
Coaching and support for our Kids. I know myself, as well as you
are sick and tired of our Children failing and us failing our
Children. No one said an Extended Family and Blending a new Family
would be easy but it could be and it should be if we all come
together and support our efforts. I am NOT talking about
"b---- " Blogs or Dating for Single Parents. I am talking
about a real revolution in the Blending and Dynamics of
Families.
I have a wonderful set of plans, work books and sessions that will
help you Family succeed! Because the dynamics of Blending
Families is a complicated process I have devised some wonderful
resources that have a proven trac record.
It is TIME WE RESPECT OURSELVES, OUR CHILDREN AND MOVE IN A
POSITIVE FORWARD MOTION! IT IS TIME WE STOP THE BLAME GAME
FOR THE DEMISE OF OUR FAMILY UNIT AND LEAD THEM INTO A NEW ERA OF
CONFIDENCE AND STRONG STRUCTURE! STAND UP FOR WHAT YOU
BELIEVE IN>>>>YOUR FAMILY AND
CHILDREN!
STEP FAMILIES AND CHILDREN:WE ARE NOT BORN TO FOLLOW WE ARE BORN TO LEAD!

Report AbuseIt depends. If the child is really little when the step parent comes into their lives yeah but when they're older (especially around 10+) I don't think the step parent should be punishing them. If they have a problem the can talk to their spouse. They haven't been with the child since they were little and it's only going to build resentment. Not that I think the child should be allowed to act like a brat. If the step parent has an issue (again if it's an older child) they should tell the parent and the parent should deal with it. I have to say if either of my parents (they didn't) brought another person into any of us girls lives at about 10+ we certainly would not have been doing what that person said. We'd be like "okay you aren't my parent and you haven't been my parent so don't try to act like you are". And we were respectful children (not perfect but respectful) and we obeyed our parents. But we certainly wouldn't have just been like "okay now that your married to my parent you can tell me what to do".
Like I said I believe it totally makes a difference as to what age they are. Heck as a ten year old I would have been creeped out if I had a new "mommy/daddy" and would have been nervous around them. The last thing I'd be thinking is "I should obey this person because my parent married them". I'd just have been freaked out that they were even in the house and I wouldn't have wanted them getting into my stuff or telling me what to do. I would have respected them more if they treat me like A child and not like THEIR child.

Report AbuseIf so, as being born to lead, why are there still so many in the poverty bracket and having to read about even some millionaires dropping into this level of wealth status...My leading is way different from all of your kind of thought process of "leadership" Remember Joe Biden's words before he was officially elected? "And that leaves millions of souls on a bridge to nowhere..." Guess what that is where millions of souls out of 7 billion existing souls still are...a bridge to nowhere!
