It's blended family month at the Modern Divorce Podcast, and host Billie Tarascio joins with two experienced parents who've got a system you can use to make your blended family life more successful - and sane.

It's hard enough raising a family under any circumstances, but blending a family can be an especially difficult process as you build relationships between step siblings and step parents. Dr James and Ginger Dellaripa of Scottsdale, Arizona, blended their family of 5 children as younger parents, and developed a set of tools through trial and error that turned into their Family Resource Planning System. They share many of the specifics on today's show  to keep you from feeling out of control, and keep your kiddos grounded and secure.

You can find The Family Core and check out its resources and videos here.
