National Blended Families Organization Conducting Stepfamily Survey. The Bonded Family Polls Nationwide for Research on Blended Family Households

The Bonded Family is undertaking a nationwide, confidential survey of blended family households, and seek to find the updated list of the five top challenges facing stepfamily households today. The online survey takes about 90 seconds to fill out online. Seven quick questions were developed to make for for a quick, easy to respond to survey. The online poll can be found on their website at: www.thebondedfamily.com/research

“Sometimes stepfamilies feel alone, branded, broken and discouraged. We know that doesn’t have to be the case” noted Rebecca Snell, President of The Bonded Family. “Through greater understanding, awareness and education about blended family dynamics, we believe we can change the trends in America for the better. Ours is a message with a faith foundation. The research and statistics prove that can be a true key in success in any family, particularly a family facing the diverse struggles that stepfamilies can face. God can take stepfamilies from broken to blended to bonded." added Snell.

The Snell’s, 15 years in a blended family with six children, know the joys and trials of growing a stepfamily. With Rebecca bringing three children into the union, and Dan having two, then together having one of their own, they have discovered some wonderful success and indeed some giant mountains at times. In 2005 they began to research, conduct focus groups, study national reports, interview psychologists and leaders in family dynamics, all while building a structure that they might bring to bear to serve others in their circumstances.

This current poll being conducted is part of an ongoing study being done throughout 2010 and into 2011. The BLENDED FAMILY SURVEY can also be found at: http://ez.com/StepfamilyPoll
