Your Values: An Exercise for Blended Families

2/3/2017

 
Bringing two different families together under one roof can be emotional, complicated and, sometimes, just plain hard. Everyone has their own opinions, habits and needs. How on earth do you figure out how to become a solid family unit?

Once you are all settled in, sit down for a family meeting and ask the following questions. Consider your answers, and you'll have a blue print of your unique path to becoming a strong, connected family!

+ What do we want to be remembered for as a family?
+ How do we want to give back to our community?
