Workshop 66: Step-Parenting, Restructured Families, and Parent-Child Contact Problems
This presentation will explore the complexities of remarriage for divorcing adults with children. Second marriages with children fail at a high rate, and it is often due to parenting and child-focused issues. Issues to be addressed will include the development of realistic expectations for the restructured family, appropriate parenting practices, high-conflict situations, and parent-child contact problems.
