Step-parenting advice?
joeltonya asked:
I’m the step-parent of a 10 year old girl since she was 3. We have a wonderful relationship, but her relationship with her mom is not that great - I think it’s because they are so much alike. Does anyone have any websites/chat forums for step-parents that I could try to bounce some ideas on?
