It is very difficult to meet people and feel that it is with whom the family nucleus will be formed and will be stable, but children often change when parents have new relationships and tend to create a new family. It is complicated and delicate to deal with these situations and it is necessary to be cautious.

Children are very intuitive and often fear, feel afraid, worry and many other factors that intervene and that can not be overlooked, because it is the child's life and mental health that is at stake. Adults should always think about children, and act in the best way, thinking about emotional well-being.
What can be best for the child according to the new family?

Separations between parents should not be traumatic for children, you should always think about them. But introducing other people is where changes and new feelings begin.
When beginning to relate, new changes arise, adults must be very careful and be clear about which are the most correct options or not.
Parents may have many doubts, but it is never good to lie to children, you must always tell them the truth, however painful it may be.
When is the best time to talk to the child that changes are coming and, as such, is the possibility of including a new member?
You should know in what context to start doing it, taking into account:
► Character of the child.
► State of mind.
► Current relationship with parents.
► How is the child currently living the separation?
► Among many other factors that intervene and that can not go unnoticed.

► A reasonable time must be allowed for the child to assume separation or divorce from the parents as something definitive.
► Children can not entertain themselves with the idea that parents will meet again.
► Time should be given for the child to assimilate the separation between the parents.
► It is important that once the child understands the separation situation, he or she should be told little by little about the new partner.
How should the child's first encounters with the new member of the family be?
► They should be brief encounters.
► The short walks are the recommendations.
► Let the child interact and ask the new member questions.
► The questions of the child can be: concerns or simply what at the moment he wants to know, and in this way have the ability to respond naturally.
