What Are Transitional Families?At some time in your life, you have been an important part of a transitional family. Births, deaths, illness, marriage, divorce, blending a disparate group of individuals, gender and sexual orientation issues, children leaving the nest, moving to a new home, retirement - all constitute transitions that can turn families upside-down, wreaking havoc on relationships and creating feelings of anger and a hopelessness that good feelings may never return. Even in the most stable families, changes can create instability.
