http://muextension.missouri.edu/explore/hesguide/humanrel/gh6603.htm

Extractions: Janet A. Clark, Program Leader and Associate State Specialist, Human Development and Family Studies This guide has been revised and updated from GH3507, originally written by Marilyn Coleman and Larry Ganong, Human Development and Family Studies. Money, frequently cited as the biggest source of stress in family life, is often an even more challenging matter for members of stepfamilies. About 50 percent of Americans will live in a stepfamily at some point in their lives, making money management in stepfamilies an important issue for many people. This guide will describe several reasons why stepfamily members often have very different views related to the use of money. It will also discuss some ways by which stepfamilies can manage their financial affairs successfully. Although all families face a variety of financial tasks, such as preparing a budget, dealing with unforeseen expenses, and planning for the future, financial matters are often more complex in stepfamilies. Why is this so? This section will highlight some common characteristics of stepfamilies that can make financial decision making more complicated than in first-married families. Husbands and wives often have differing attitudes and beliefs about family finances. In a remarriage, however, each partner contributes not only his or her own beliefs about money to the new relationship, but also past financial experiences and established habits of spending and saving money. It can be a major challenge for remarried spouses to merge their ideas into a system that is acceptable to both partners. If partners insist upon retaining the methods of handling money and making financial decisions that they used in other relationships, they may experience friction with their new spouses. Tension is especially likely if financial problems were a contributing factor in a previous divorce.

http://smalley.gospelcom.net/articles/stepfamilies/tomorrowsnucliearfamily.htm

Extractions: Tomorrow's Nuclear Family? by Dr. David Swift Can you quickly think of a reason why the "stepfamily" should be reviewed? Could it be because it is predicted to be the predominant family form in America by the 21st Century? If you include extended family as being members of a stepfamily, then well over half of the American population is already associated with a stepfamily. That my friend, is a lot of folks. Although the divorce rate is finally leveling, it is still at an all time high. Society has made it easy and acceptable to be divorced, which ultimately leaves a staggering amount of children in broken homes; children who will most likely be faced with adapting to a stepfamily that is confusing, disappointing, and extremely frustrating. Children rarely ever have a choice in remarriage, but are expected to dedicate themselves to its success.

http://smalley.gospelcom.net/artman/publish/article_225.shtml

Extractions: When we became married they made false police reports against me, called me names, lied about me to everybody, and have just treated me like dirt. Suddenly, for whatever reason, one of my step-children popped into my life and acts as if she has done nothing wrong. My feelings are hurt, damaged, and I just don't appreciate all of the rotten things she has done against me. She pretends to be nice in front of my husband, but when he is not around she is just as nasty as ever. I try talking to my husband about my feelings, but he ignores them. I feel as if there should be some accountability for her actions as she is now an adult. I am tired of putting up with this type of behavior, and I am frustrated at my husband for not understanding my situation. He sees how manipulative and mean she is to me, but refuses to talk to me about it. What can I do in order to deal with this issue? Stepfamilies can be difficult, there is no question about it. Your question is an important one for a couple of reasons. First, I like that you are wanting to get your husband on the same page as you are in terms of dealing with his children. It is vital in a step-family relationship that the couple is united and supportive of each other. This will help the children see that this new arrangement is safe, secure, and together. Secondly, you are raising an issue of how you get a husband to listen to you, and validate your feelings.

Extractions: My dad never actually told me he had a girlfriend. One day she was just there. My dad, his girlfriend Tracy, and me went out to dinner. That night, when I got home, I told my mum and she went mad. She phoned my dad and screamed at him. She phoned Tracy and screamed at her. Kirsty was stuck in the middle. She felt her parents used her to gather information about each other and often reacted unreasonably. However, this new-found friendship had its own problems. Kirsty felt guilty for liking her new stepmum because she thought her mum would be upset. She sees advantages and disadvantages in having four parents. I love having loads of parents but I hate it when I have to try and get them to agree to let me do something.

Stepfamilies In Australia - AIFS Conference Paper 1998 - Australian Institute Of
Unacknowledged change stepfamilies in Australia, paper by Steve Martin presentedto 6th Australian Institute of Family Studies Conference 1998.
http://www.aifs.gov.au/institute/afrc6papers/martins.html

Extractions: This paper documents the experience of the Stepfamily Association of Vic in working with stepfamilies. It raises some questions which I trust you may find useful, whether your interest is in social policy, research, family practice, or if you are here because you are in a family. The main part of the paper explores issues relating to the lack of recognition and support many stepfamilies experience as part of everyday life. It argues that stepfamilies occupy an ambivalent position in society which is disempowering for them, and ignores the positive contribution they have to make in a changing society. The final part of the paper explores what the Stepfamily Association believes needs to happen for this picture to change. 1. Lack of recognition and support - an experience of ambivalence. When someone (with authority) describes the world and you are not in it, there is a moment of psychic disequilibrium, as if you looked into a mirror and saw nothing (Rich in Meemeduma, 1993:163)

Extractions: STEPFAMILIES OF PITTSBURGH A Special Kind of Family An estimated 15 million children are living in stepfamilies. There is little guidance for these families, although they differ in crucial ways from the original nuclear families: These are just a few of the complications that confront stepfamilies. All the members are called upon to readjust primary relationships. The realities are often different from the expectations. Stepfamilies of Pittsburgh is a self-help group for persons in a stepfamily relationship. We work together to explore the issues and themes that emerge in this increasingly common type of extended family. Through self-education and the exchange of ideas and experiences we believe that individuals can learn to deal with the realities and challenges of stepfamily life in a rewarding way.

This represents a "second tier" of family life education and fits within an ecological perspective on human development. This theoretical framework recognizes multi-level environmental influences on human development. Specifically, community professionals represent factors outside the family that can affect family functioning.

The National Stepfamily Association has launched a new initiative aimedat the 2.5 million young people growing up in stepfamilies.
http://www.wiiz.org/relationships3.htm

Extractions: It is estimated that 1 in 4 first marriages end in divorce and that 28% of children experience their parents divorce before the age of 16. More than half of these parents remarry to form new families with new partners. Often their new partners have children too, or they go on to have mare children together. This can be a confusing and difficult time for children and young people from the original marriages. There are organisations that can help you sort out these difficult relationships. The National Stepfamily Association has launched a new initiative aimed at the 2.5 million young people growing up in stepfamilies. Opportunities for young people to share their experiences during family changes are limited and the Association aims to redress this in the future. The Children and Young People project would like to hear from you if you are experiencing family changes. If you would like to be involved contact them at the address below. Also, a number of books have been written about young people in stepfamilies including;

Extractions: Related topic: Enjoy Family Life HAPPY STEPFAMILIES ARE POSSIBLE! HOW? The stepfamily has become a common type of household in many parts of the world. Yet, stepfamilies have unique problems. The most challenging is undoubtedly child rearing. However, as the two articles that follow will try to show, it is possible to rear children successfully in a stepfamily environment. TRADITIONALLY, STEPFATHERS AND STEPMOTHERS HAVE HAD A BAD PRESS. WHEN WE WERE children, many of us heard some version of the fairy tale of Cinderella, who suffered so much at the hands of her cruel stepmother. Children in Europe learn, too, the fairy tale Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Snow White's stepmother turns out to be a wicked witch! Do such fairy tales give an accurate view of stepfamilies? Are all stepparents really so bad? No. Most of them want only what is best for the children they inherit by marriage. But they do have to face some difficult problems inherent in stepfamily life.

Media Contact Published by Communications and Public Affairs (519) 824-4120, Ext. 56982 or 53338 June 20, 2002 The University of Guelph's Department of Family Relations and Applied Nutrition is looking for stepfamilies to participate in a series of three studies that will explore how the different generations of a stepfamily support each other. Profs. Joan Norris, Scott Maitland and Joseph Tindale need 100 families for their studies, consisting of at least one adult child with a step-parent and step-grandparent. Stepfamilies are increasingly common, but they are also quite complex because they involve a 'step' beyond the initial family formation. Little is known about how members of stepfamilies perceive and act out their relationships with each other. "Our social and health care systems are based on policy ideas about traditional nuclear families and may not meet the needs of other family forms such as stepfamilies," said Tindale. Stepfamily members will take part in individual and group exercises that will range from one to five hours, with times and places to be arranged at the participants convenience. The identity of the participants will not be revealed in the results of the study.
