Stepping Over Stereotypes

This is a story about the being in the situation of a step-parent and what is expected of you. Cheri was given this great opportunity by Sydney’s Child. In the opening there is a mother telling her step-daughter a story about Hansel and Gretel and the child asks at the end of the tale; who killed the step-mother? A difficult question for someone who is a step-mother. So the story goes on how she copes and handles everyday life with her new family.
