Step-parents face unique challenges. Many of which can be difficult to prepare for and the need for resilience is without question. Nonetheless, the 'NACHO' approach isn't the way to go!

Regardless of the extent of our bounds, our job is to love, instruct, and shape our kids for their sake, not our own.
