I believe most of us would be shocked at first to learn that we have step-siblings when one day, out of nowhere, we pass by them in our home. Secondly, we would possibly have quite a lot of questions that we would expect our parents to answer. And finally, then, we would either try to create a relationship or maybe act like they don’t exist.
However, it’s especially important for parents to fulfill the 2nd step – explain the situation to their kids.

She welcomed her, but the man has not picked up the slack that comes with having a new addition to the family.
