One side of my blended family (my ex, myself, his new wife and my new husband), although we still have issues, works. It works because although we still have issues; which is inevitable when you have 2 sets of parents, children and obviously different ways of doing things, we COMMUNICATE, openly and honestly. But, the other side (my husband, his ex, myself and her new husband) is a complete disaster. I have made it a point over the last several years to delve deep into this topic [blended families] in order to help heal. As a BFC (Blended Family Counselor pending certification), I've talked to and worked with many blended families and have realized that we face many of the same challenges. It's a difficult world to navigate through; trying to establish boundaries and limits for ex-spouses, trying to integrate both sets of children into your household and trying to maintain your marriage simultaneously...whew! Please visit my blog, www.blendingin.wordpress.com, for a more in depth understanding of my own blended family experiences as well as my candid views on the issues that we face.
