Divorce and remarriage are not always easy on children because it creates a break up in the family.

Children that go through this need a set of combined beliefs and values.

Often times structural family therapy (SFT) is used as a treatment that addresses patterns of interaction that create problems with in families.

Furthermore, single parents, blended families, and extended families are at risk for family problems and most times can benefit from SFT.

When joining two separate families, there are external and internal stressors. Thus, a good support system is important for children to aid with this transition.

Along with being accommodating and supportive as adults we must also set rules and directions that we expect.

The power must be equal among the adults and the rules need to be recognized by the family members.
