My stepdaughter spends two nights of every week with us and the rest of the time at her mother’s house. At first I had a good relationship with her but it has become strained in the last two years. But what I am really concerned about is how she behaves with her father.

Those are the words of one of our listeners. She wrote to us seeking advice to improve her relationship with her stepdaughter, who appears to be competing for her fathers attention. Our relationship expert, Iseult White helped guide her through this time.
