Step mothers are normally the one who takes more of the parenting task when it comes to blended family for their children, which applies to the step children and bio children of her. When it comes to nurturing the step family kids, the mother are normally doing the heaviest tasks due to the work schedule and expectations related to a woman.

Some of the responsibilities that step mothers perform in the blended family transportation, domestic household duties, dental and medical appointments. In addition to those, the step mother is also responsible for school events and social related of the kids in the school and at home. When the men are available and willing to do their fair share to the blended family, the step mother can actually be considered as single parent.

As a father, the daddy of the step family needs to perform its obligation very well. We all know that parenting works not only when one parent is working but when both are involved. This allows for clear and better agreement to the expectations of the children. Furthermore, being a father to the step family needs to show its commitment to his partner and his plan about the parenting goal for their family. Also, always consider your wife and never ignore her when the kids are present to avoid seeing it. Your marriage is also important so you need to give full attention to it.
