Bernstein, the author, makes it very clear how she chose the families she uses in the book. Unlike some books in this field, she was very methodical in her selection, making sure she had a family from the multitude of family types.I find that I refer to the book quite often...not only to see how other families deal with a situation but also to remind myself that my family is not alone in these decisions.What I like about it is that the examples are specific enough (the author changed the names in order to make this happen) so that all the issues are talked about. The author illustrates the decisions that appear to have worked over the short- and long-term and the ones that didn't quite work out as the family intended.
My title may sound harsh but this book was so over simplified and seemed to raise issues that most "blended" families do not encounter. My husband and I each have one child from our respective marriages and four together. I brought this book for hope that it would help me integrate his daughter into our home but even with the drastic issues of that case, the book was not at all helpful.
