This time around, the Census is once again equating "family" with "household." Translation: you don't count as a stepfamily unless the child in question lives with you "most of the time." If your step/child lives with you 50% of the time or less, you're not a "real" stepfamily.

It's rare to find anyone whose biological parents are married! All of you are out of touch with America.
Why do you think Santorum is going on and on about families? It's because that type of family is dead in America."Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

And the reason Santorum goes on about families is because he's uber-conservative jerkwad who think gays marrying is going to ruin everything.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
