For as long as there have been fairy tales there have been evil stepmothers. Fairy tale nightmares aside, what’s it really like to marry a man with children? And why do stepmoms often have such a hard time finding a comfortable and respected place in their families? In this podcast I talk with Wednesday Martin, author of Stepmonster: A New Look at Why Stepmothers Think, Feel and Act The Way We Do (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt 2009).
