520    Blending Families responds to the need for a book that 
       explores step-parenting by starting with the marriage as 
       the central relationship in a new blended family unit. 
       Just as you are better able to help your child in an 
       airplane emergency if you put your oxygen mask on first, 
       you are better able to blend two families if you take care
       of the marriage first. Starting with a discussion of 
       attachment styles, the authors explore how those styles 
       translate into the new family unit when trying to forge a 
       new marriage while parenting tween and teen children in a 
       family unit that is new to them as well. They provide 
       parenting guidance premised on the fact that parenting 
       occurs within a context, and in this case, a context that 
       is unfamiliar territory for everyone involved. Using true 
       stories throughout, they explore the variety of challenges
       that may arise, such as sibling rivalry, puberty, dating, 
       emotional and intellectual differences, and preferential 
       treatment, and offer suggestions for overcoming obstacles 
       to fully blending. By focusing the light on the marriage 
       as the most important source of stability, the authors 
       encourage readers to develop a style of parenting that 
       works for everyone and brings a sense of unity and 
       strength to the household.
