We May Be Together, But Have Not Blended
09/03/2015


Hi, Dr. Laura,

I never realized how hard it was going to be to blend families.  

Prior to remarrying, I wish I had heard your comments about waiting until the kids were grown and gone before dating.  It would have saved a lot of pain for everyone involved.  

We have been married 24 years and haven't really blended at all.  We still do separate holidays and visits. 

Please keep telling divorced parents with minor children to not to date -- at all. I so wish I wouldn't have. Daily, I deal with the profound guilt of what my decisions have caused to my two daughters. 

Thank-you, Dr. Laura for all the great work you do for families and our dear veterans! 

May God bless you richly! 

Sincerely, 

Penny
