The Business of Co-Parenting for Stepparents: How to Responsibly Invest in Your Blended Family & Build Harmony (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780692695470)

Although the blended family structure seems to be the most common nowadays, it's arguably also the most challenging. Not only do 60-70% of blended families end in divorce, but based on years of studies, there's an unwavering consensus that children in blended families face greater negative risks than their counterparts. Among other things, they face an increased risk of conflict in the home, lower academic performance, juvenile delinquency, drug and alcohol abuse, and are three times more likely to need psychological counseling. "America's Blended Family Expert," Merissa V. Grayson, believes that with the right mindset and action, both your marriage and children can thrive despite the odds against them. In "The Business of Co-Parenting for Stepparents", Merissa teaches you her Business Model Mindset; a way of thinking that is goal based, action oriented, and focused on protecting your most important assets - your marriage and blended family.
