A five-minute self-check
The Conflict Map: a free stepfamily quiz
Twenty-four questions about how things are most weeks at your house. Every answer adds a stone. At the end you’ll see your eight areas, each scored out of ten, and the three places to start.
Answer for most weeks, not your best or worst day. Your answers stay in your browser.
What you’ll answer
Three short questions in each of eight areas of blended family life: backing each other up, the stepparent’s role, the kids’ loyalties, exes and outside pressure, money, time as a couple, feeling like one family, and how you fight and make up.
What you get back
Your map, right away. Eight cairns, one for each area, each stacked to its score out of ten. The three lowest are numbered, with one small thing to try this week for each. You don’t need to give an email to see it.
Who it’s for
Stepparents, parents and couples in a blended family, whether you moved in last month or years ago. Take it on your own or side by side. It’s a self-check, not a diagnosis.
