Good book

Both, my husband and I, enjoyed this book very much. I am a stepparent to my husband's daughter and he is a stepparent to my children. This book gave us both some usefull tips on how to connect with each other's children as well as with each other. I enjoyed reading Suzen's case examples and dialogues which illustrated typical stepfamily scenarios that I could relate to. It reasured me that bonding is simply a matter of time!

7 Steps to Bonding with your Stepchild

I've read half way through the book so far and I have to say it is helping me a great deal. A lot of what it has done is confirm some of my thoughts in question. I look forward to the rest of the book.

Compassionate, In-Depth And Packed With Great Tips

I read this book as a biological parent and a stepparent. I really appreciate the author's deep and compassionate understanding of the primitive connection between parents and their biological children in stepfamilies-a connection that can leave stepparents feeling like outsiders. Because the author honors this important bond between divorced parents and their kids, she does a beautiful job of explaining the incredibly complex nature of relationships in stepfamilies. I love the author's warm, personal approach and her ability to create empathy for all members of a stepfamily. She does a great job of helping stepparents view the world from their partners' and stepchildren's point of view. She also offers very helpful tips about how to bond with stepchildren, including sample conversations about difficult topics. The bonding tips include "Conversation Starters That Get Stepchildren Talking" and other creative ideas. This book is a gold mine for stepparents!

7 Steps to Bonding With Your Stepchild

We are a treatment foster home and Suzen was our clinical specialist for almost a year. I have a step child that I was having problems with and Suzen suggested that we read her book and see if it would help. It helped me because I at times seemed like I was in competition with my step-son for his father's attention. It showed me new ways to deal with this and how to come to terms with it. It also helped me with the foster children in our home and really had a large impact on how I dealt with those children. I feel Suzen writes from the heart and some very good points in her book. I would recommend this book highly to any family which is dealing with difficult step-children. It is worth every penny.
