Below is link to a dialogue I picked up from Dr. Phil's website between a father (Ken), his daughter (Emily) and the stepmother (Brenda).

I find this advice very helpful but, in terms of "adjusting our roles" as father and step-mother...DH and I wish there was a practical list of things we could do.

I was wondering if we could compile a practical list of activities that bio parents and stepparents can do to "adjust our roles." I really would appreciate any ideas you have.
