The first two years following a remarriage with children is known to be an extreme­ ly difficult time for people and many relation­ ships do not make it past this benchmark. This work­ shop will work towards develop­ ing an under­ standing of how the step-family differs from the biological family. It will look at the practical aspects of remar­ riage with chil­ dren and the chal­ lenges unique to step-families. It will teach how to develop positive r e l a t i o n s h i p s between step-par­ ents and step­ children. The format will be a mix of lecture and small group discussion, where individual problems will be addressed. The instructor is Blythe Ward, a family counsel­ lor. The course is being offered at the Oakville- Parent Child Centre, 341 Kerr St., on Tuesdays, Oct. 5th and 12th, from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. The fee for the course if $50 per couple.
