Stepfamilies are considered to be the fastest growing
family unit today. Stepfamilies have extra challenges that other families do not have. Stepcouples can find themselves facing
rivalies between their ex- partner, guilt about the absent parent, divided loyalites felt by the extended
family and rivalry between biological and step-siblings. It's not surprising that with the best will in the world
things can often go wrong.
Scottish Marrige Care understands the problems that stepfamilies face. If you
are in a stepfamily already or about to be part of one, we can provide helpful support and advice. If you would like to talk
to someone who will listen, be non judgemental and provide you with some support call us on 0845 122 8655 Our Helpline is open Monday- Friday 10am-4pm
Stepfamily Scotland, Gillis Centre, 113 Whitehouse Loan, Edinburgh, EH9 1BB.
