I picked this book up out of the sheer curiosity of how I might manage if I divorced.  I come from a divorced family so I know first hand how difficult it is as a child to cope with the emotional struggles with being separated from one parent.  But, as a parent myself I never thought about how difficult it could be as a stepparent.  It really made me think about how I interact with my family and what I realized is that there is so much more that I could be doing instead of pondering divorce.  That said, I found Kathie's words comforting and truly feel that if it ever came down to it, that I now have a very good sense of direction on how I can manage being in a blended family, after all, I did it as a child!  I recommend this book highly for those considering, in the middle or not even pondering divorce at all.  The information is so applicable to families and parents in general that even biological families that haven't gone through a divorce could extremely benefit from the examples and exercises given in this book to help strengthen the family unit.  Thanks Katie!
