When my two sisters and I were kids, our parents took a trip to Europe for a few weeks one summer. We could not go with them and were farmed out – literally – to the biggest farm I have ever seen. It belonged to the family of my older sister’s good friend.
When two people fall in love and get married, there is a good chance that one or the other already has children from a previous marriage, suddenly launching the new spouse into instant parenthood.
