Family is supposed to be the people we turn to when we need support, but what if you don't feel like you belong? This is the reality for one teenager who struggles to accept her blended family. After finally opening up to her sister about her true feelings, she feels betrayed when her sister breaks her trust and tells their mom everything. Now, she's stuck in family therapy trying to achieve a goal she doesn't want to achieve, and she's not sure who she can trust. Join the conversation as we explore the complicated dynamics of blended families and the importance of trust and communication. Read on for the comments and reactions.
