Description

"In Stepdads: Stories of Love, Hope, and Repair, William Marsiglio addresses provocative and timely questions facing stepfathers, single mothers, and remarried couples today. This book speaks to those who study and work with stepfamilies as well as persons who have ever thought about or lived in a stepfamily." "Marsiglio's social-psychological analysis explores the deep meanings men associate with being stepfathers and the way their inner worlds are shaped by their interactions with family, friends, professionals, and strangers. His nuanced approach captures both the private and public faces of being a stepfather. With an eye toward the future, Marsiglio outlines strategies at the individual, family, and social levels that can enhance stepfathers' lives as well as the lives of the birth mothers and children they touch."--Jacket.
