Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: Some single parent and blended families know that it’s tough to balance your expectations for kids that you have on the weekends or during the summer, especially when you have other children full time. Personally, I think you should try and spend some focused time with kids who come on the weekends. Even if it means disappointing someone, try to carve out some one-on-one time to make the most of your opportunity. But also, make time for all the kids to be together and never show preference in gift-giving or affection.
As for chores, you just can’t expect a two-day a week child to carry the same load as a child who is there all week, but listen, nobody gets a free pass. On the days that they are there everyone carries their own weight. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
