How do I form a healthy relationship with my stepchild? Parenting SOS with Cilla Appeaning
Season 15
Episode 30
Published 2 years, 1 month ago
Description
It’s estimated that around 1 in 3 families in the UK are a blended family, which means more of us than ever are becoming stepparents. Why then, is there still such a stigma attached to stepmothers in particular? And where is the support for them?
These are questions Cilla Appeaning asked when she met her now husband and became a stepmum to his two children. And so she founded the Stepmums Club, a platform to provide support to the growing number of stepmums and to reject that harmful ‘wicked stepmother’ stereotype.
She and Gi discuss the challenges that come with living in a blended family, and Cilla answers some of your questions on stepparenting.
