Outline: Meaning of family, blame, shame and regret. It’s normal as parents to feel these. Ask ourselves what we would have done differently, what was I thinking? The more I understood looking back.
Key Points:
- Path to healing, started with understanding with grace and compassion.
- EMDR explained
- Reason people get so upset is that they care.
- Lots of resentment because the stepmom cares and loves you – the partner
- Help with understanding where all this comes from. Where do you feel it in your body? (to do during our interview.)
- We all feel our upsets in our bodies. Working harder makes things worst for the stepmom.

Oh YES! You are right. Just think of little babies and how they react to our faces or our moods.
