S.T.E.P.S. (Step Parents Effectively Promoting Solutions) Our Mission is to provide an outlet for Step Parents Together Effectively Promoting Solutions with every day Blended Family issues.
Blended Families not only deal with the every day issues of a Natural Family we also deal with the Step Parent, Step Sibling, and Extended Family issues, as well as Co-Parenting problems that exist between Biological Parents. Our ultimate goal is to help develop and promote solutions that work with all the separate issues involved in a Blended Family. There is no right or wrong way to Parent in any family, the issue is how one deals with the solution and what is right for your family needs.
Step-relationships cannot and will not function as a traditional family. The step-relationship has no models to follow and often partners are not prepared for the tensions that arise because of the children, ex-spouse or society.
STEPS is a way for blended families to come to solutions with everyday non-traditional issues. It is an outlet for step-parents to discuss what works and doesn’t work both online and offline.
You have to have a lot of love, humility, and wonder in step relationships. I am a firm believer that children are at the heart of every family and all children need clear cut guidelines, stability, and a lot of understanding with what they are feeling and going through. Being a step child is not easy for them either, and they do need to be heard as well.
There is no right or wrong way to parent in any family. It’s about what is right for your family’s needs. At times we all wonder “Am I doing the right thing." You have to have humility and decide to let an issue go if you don’t have control or cannot control an issue.
We also have a website: www.pqcomp.com/steps
