Kirstin Edwards took an unconventional trip to Bali with her husband's ex-wife, their children, and her new partner, countering the societal norm of hostility between exes. Motivated by her experience of a difficult childhood, she is committed to ensuring her stepson has strong relationships with his half-siblings. Prior to the trip, the families had bonded during gatherings, laying a foundation for their positive vacation. The journey reinforced familial ties and highlighted the potential for blended families to redefine their dynamics amidst traditional views of rivalry.
Society has rigid rules for how you should behave towards your partner's ex, yet this trip proves that blended families can create positive experiences together.
Despite friends and family not understanding my decision to vacation with my husband's ex, it was an opportunity to strengthen our unique familial relationship.
