Real teens' questions about life in a stepfamily, answered by two psychologists.
Millions of teens live in stepfamilies. In question-and-answer form, two psychologists who specialize in teens and stepfamilies answer real questions, from what to do when a parent and a stepparent disagree to whether a new baby means being forgotten, alongside straight-talk advice from other teens who live with steps every day.
There are nearly 16 million teens living in stepfamilies in the United States – and almost 1 million new teens entering stepfamilies each year! And although there are books that may help teens cope with divorce, what about life after divorce? Stepliving for Teens explores real questions from real teens living in stepfamilies. In question-and-answer format, the book covers a wide range of actual stepfamily concerns like: “What should I do if my parent tells me one thing and my stepparent says something else?”, “I feel guilty having fun with my father and stepmother when my mom is alone. What should I do?”, and “My mother and stepfather are having a baby. Will they forget about me?” Not only will teens get honest answers from two psychologists who specialize in teenagers and stepfamilies, but also straight-talk advice from other step-teens who know what it’s like dealing with “steps” everyday.
