Becoming a step-parent is one of the toughest journeys anyone could ever take, but the rewards can be immeasurable. In this insightful and reassuring book, Australia's leading parenting expert, Michael Carr-Greg, offers practical advice on the following:

  • The typical stages of step-family transition;
  • The particular challenges of the first two years;
  • How to manage conflict and build lasting relationships;
  • Dealing with the ex;
