Blended Life EP. 07: Blended Family Social Interactions

I can think of fewer things more awkward and uncomfortable than
being forced around an #exspouse and their new beau; well,
welcome to #blendedlife!  Blended life is ALL about
unavoidable and inevitable awkward and uncomfortable situations
within a blended family.  Nothing seems natural, because
it's NOT!  In this podcast we break down how to deal when
you are stuck in social situations with your
#childrensotherfamily such as sporting events, school functions,
doctors appointments, celebrations, etc.  It can fill us
with anxiety and make us act a fool.  Most times when we
don't know how to handle ourselves in a social environment, we
look like a bunch of T-Rex's trying to clap our hands; it's
ridiculous.  When we lose ourselves in the drama of a social
situation involving our children, we are only harming them. 
When parents are present at a function for their kids, it is a
giant timeout for the parents to leave the negativity at home in
order to be able to jointly celebrate and cheer on the
kids.  The kids come first.  If you've ever witnessed a
child conflicted about talking to their other parent (whose
custody day it isn't) at something as described, I promise you it
creates an unsafe and distrusting reality for them.  Kids
need to be free to love both their parents, and their
steps.  They need to feel free to interact both families at
any joint event.  They need both parents to put aside their
differences for that time and just be there for them.  If
you have confused kids, please listen and we will help you take
that awkward sting out of something unavoidable. 
Enjoy!

Our Purpose: Why is talking about blended families and
life in general important? Because we believe that we can do
better than what statistics say about second marriages lasting,
about blending families making it, that’s why! A 70% divorce rate
statistic for remarriages with children is simply
