"Family has always been an important aspect of a healthy life. New Families is a new handbook on how to create more meaningful bonds within families. With over twenty-two years of experience in private practice, author C. Margaret Hall shows readers how to make family bonds come to life in creative and flexible ways rather than becoming tight and restrictive. New Families presents not only real-life family experiences but also suggests ways families can become stronger through more meaningful interaction with other family members"--Publisher description.
