What Are Accountability Partners for His Step Children?
In Steve Harvey’s blended family he has grouped 2 children together and made them accountability partners. For example, the 2 oldest are accountability partners to each other. The 2 middle children are accountable to each other, etc. Steve Harvey feels that this creates a bond between the two children where there may otherwise be issues.
