I'm nothing if not a child of the 90s, so when I think about THE blended family, I think about the Brady Bunch. I know reality is probably very far from that picture, so Vanessa Martindale, of Blended Kingdom Families, is here today to help us understand some of the most common challenges blended families face as they turn strangers into siblings.
