Some of you have already benefitted from my article on family meetings. This testimony from a stepdad explains why they can be so much more than just a meeting. "We started family meetings by necessity," he told me. "We kept running into walls with the kids so we decided to get together and talk about it. At first the meetings were all problem centered. But then we realized we could get proactive. Now, looking back it did more than solve problems. We figured out how to be a family.

Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.

Ron: Some of you have already benefitted from my article on family meetings. This testimony from a stepdad explains why they can be so much more than just a meeting. “We started family meetings by necessity,” he told me. “We kept running into walls with the kids so we decided to get everyone together and talk about it. In the beginning the meetings were all problem centered. But as time went on we realized we could get proactive. Get ahead of problems and make things run more smoothly.”

“Now, looking back after a decade,” he said. “I can see that it did even more than solve problems. We learned about each other. We listened to each other and we figured out how to be a family.” For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
