      Nearly two out of three re-marriages that come with children fail. This book will help your family succeed! It's essential reading for every woman who is navigating her way through stepfamily life.

• Get your stepchildren to respect your authority

"As an Internet industry veteran, I subscribe to many newsletters. But yours is the only one I avidly read as soon as I get it. I have been a stepmom for ten years, and I still need help. Your newsletter gives so much back to many of us. Thank you for that." --  Kirsti Spiva
