[quote=Anonymous]Blended family with two high school aged boys. My bio kid runs circles around his older step brother in terms of maturity, achievement and drive. Blended family or not, I grew up an only child and I'm worried about how this will effect them both. It's becoming very blatant that they're on two different paths and I'm not sure how to navigate this divide, especially while making sure both of them have the supports they need. It's not just that my bio kid is significantly ahead, but that older step brother is significantly behind. Dinner conversations are a little uncomfortable given the divide sometimes and I'm looking for perspective and suggestions on how to minimize this. [/quote]
