"Becoming part of a stepfamily involves adjusting to a number of changes, both for parents and children.

Young people of different ages tend to feel different things about this at first.

They may experience a range of feelings, including anger, jealousy, hate, confusion, hurt and despair.

These are all natural and part of the loss and grief process.

They will pass, with support from caregivers.

It is important not to blame a child if they are causing problems or feeling angry, sad or resentful. Instead, they need understanding."
