How To Blend A Family When Your Kids Are Teenagers

Is there a way to have peace in the home with teenagers still bitter about their parents divorcing? How about if the custodial parent has remarried or considering remarrying and not to the other biological parent? Some would say HELL NO and in some cases I would still say that but that would be in homes that have not given the kids time to heal or homes that have not received professional counseling to resolve the issues within that scream for attention heard or should be heard by the kids behaviors. Often times kids act out or rebel but there are to many times that kids become introvert, quiet, withdrawn, and sometimes depressed which is all to often taken as a sign of the kids being ok with the changes that are taking place in their home and in their life when in fact those kids are the ones in far worse need for help. Time DOES NOT heal all wounds so if you are thinking that turning a blind eye or banking on time healing their heart STOP before your heart is the only one broken from missing your kid(s) when they have commited suicide, ran away and never looking back or runaways never having the choice to go home because they have encountered their most unfortunate demise by some lunatic seeking out a kid looking for love in all the wrong places. It happens thousands of times A YEAR so please never say never about your children or child, never rely on hope or a miracle but rely on yourself putting your kids needs before your own especially their happiness and health before yours. NO you won't be alone forever not even if your kid is the one that takes what seems like forever and a day to let go of resentment. It will take time, individual counseling and family counseling but they will get to a point where they want to see you happy and also to where they actually look forward to having another "parent" in the home again.
  PLEASE remember what your child has endured before hurrying into a marriage and blending a family though because if you are not certain that your second, third or even fourth marriage will be one that lasts then DO NOT make that kind of commitment because divorce may get easier for you but they never get easier for children, in fact they make the probablity of your kid getting into a lifelong lasting marriage drastically less likely to occur for them as adults. If you have any doubt at all then wait for the kids to go off to college or off to their own ADULT life. Parenting doesn't end at 18 but kids tendencies to want to follow in your footsteps voluntary or involuntarily does.
