• 40% of married couples with children in the U.S. are step-couples.⁵
  
• Blended families were projected to be the predominant family form in the U.S. as of 2010.⁶
• According to step-family expert Ron Deal (2002), "The average step-family takes seven years to integrate. Parents want to believe their kids will be okay, thus the power of hope blinds couples to the realities of step-family integration." (p. 64)⁷
