Description
This volume explores a new kind of family that is not so new. Stepfamilies orginally emerged as a family resulting from the death of a parent - the new stepfamily results from the separation of divorce of parents. Robinson and Smith cover a wide variety of topics including legal and financial issues, historical factors, the significance of myths, and the challenges of building relationships and new family ties.
