Education: Authoring the Definition of Family | Celebrating Functional Dynamics in Lieu of the Ideal

#Education #Functional #Family0:00 - 2:30 - Intro 2:30 - 10:14 - Choosing Function over Dysfunction 10:14 - Wrap Up Hello Everyone, I hope all is well. Welcome to our firsts segment on Education this week 😊 In today's conversation we're talking about all the different lived expressions of family out there. How family translates is for each one of us to define. Sometimes it can be the relationships we're born into, or our family could be the relationships that we chose for ourselves. Families are comprised of dual parent, single-parent, guardianship, co-parent structures and everything in between -- each equally deserving of celebration and recognition. Specifically, I want to talk about the seldomly referenced blended families. When it comes to "dating as a parent" what concepts and assumptions are better able to support you when finding the partner who could potentially integrate into this next evolution of family in your life.
