Stepfamily Financial Struggles

>> Wednesday, May 13, 2009

If there is one thing about the stepfamily situation that can cause the most conflicts (most likely behind the ex which probably takes first place for conflicts in a majority of the stepfamilies), it is finances. I don't think the scope of "all that can go wrong" is fully realized until you are smack in the middle of it and you're struggling to make ends meet after child support and/or spousal support or you're upset with your spouse over extra funds going out above and beyond. Let's face it, there aren't too many stepfamilies who have a ferrari in the garage and the biggest challenge is looking for Ferrari parts for it. Our biggest challenge is usually just meeting our day-to-day bills with what is left over after all the different supports are paid.
