Did you know?
You could be a part of a stepfamily system and not even realize it.
You are in a stepfamily if:
* You are remarried and one or both of you have children (in or out of the home).
* You are divorced with children and your ex-spouse is remarried.
* Your partner has children (any age counts), even if you don’t.
* You have grandchildren from an adult child who is divorced, remarried, or whose ex –spouse is remarried.
* You have a family member (i.e. sibling, child, or grandchild) in any of the above situations.
If you fall into any of the above categories, this course is for you.
This class will also be beneficial to you if:
You are divorced, single, or widowed with children and hope to be (re)married someday.
This course is also open to anyone who wants to learn more about stepfamily life and its unique challenges.
