Today I have my friend Tracy with me to talk about having a blended family. If you don't know, a blended family is two people that move in together who both have kids from a previous marriage. We talk about codependence, being a mediator, how she handled dissagreements with his kids, how her kids reacted to her fiancé moving in, the gifts she got from having a blended family and much more!
