The episode features Laura Petherbridge discussing trends and dynamics in stepfamilies, including terminology, custody changes, and biblical perspectives on stepfamilies.
We’re back with The Smart Stepmom, Laura Petherbridge! We continue our discussion about stepfamily life by picking up where we left off in part 1. Specifically, Laura and I discuss the following: Current trends with stepfamilies. For example, the term “bonus mom” is now commonly used instead of “stepmother.” Is this helpful or hurtful? Custody changes—moving from mothers having full custody to 50/50 arrangements. Why children tend to have a harder time connecting with stepmothers as opposed to stepfathers. The many stepfamilies in the Bible and how Laura believes God views stepfamilies. Whether you’re personally part of a stepfamily or not, you’ll be blessed by Laura’s warmth, wit, and wisdom.
