New relationships can disrupt family roles while triggering pain from past loss. Relationship expert Gary Chapman and stepfamily expert Ron L. Deal collaborate to demonstrate how the five love languages can help blended families build relationships that honor the past while looking to the future. Their insights address questions like: </p><p>-How do I focus on my marriage while helping my children adjust to a new family?<br/>-How do I honor an adult stepchild who feels threatened by my presence?<br/>-How do I build a relationship with a new stepgrandchild?</p><p>The dynamics of a blended family vary greatly from that of a biological family, so giving and receiving love is not as easy as it may seem. In <i>Building Love Together in Blended Families</i> you'll find strategies to care for yourself, your children, and your new marriage. Merging lives is challenging, but thoughtful hearts and commitment to learning will lay a foundation for your blended family to grow together.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>GARY CHAPMAN</b>--author, speaker, counselor--has a passion for people and for helping them form lasting relationships.
