Jack and Jane are settling into a new life with four children and two dogs. This is the second marriage for both of them and their children are starting to exhibit odd symptoms that haven’t been seen in this family before. In order to cope with the situation, the therapist recommends that this newly blended family:
  1. Notify the school of the behavior change immediately
  2. Seek outside help from many sources
  3. Reject myths regarding stepfamilies
  4. Start having dinner together regularly
