Blending Families Part 2

It's challenging enough to combine two people into one relationship, but adding the ingredient of kids can make a recipe for relationship stress. Blended and step families make up around 1 in 10 families.

For Rachel, having three children to take care of meant she didn't want the complexities of a new relationship. So when an old friendship with Steven grew to something more, communication was vital to navigate the next steps of blending a family.
