Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The issue of children who belong to both parents feeling less loved and more smothered than their other siblings is not typically an issue in remarriage situations where couples have children together. This issue is more common in situations where one parent has children from a previous relationship and those children feel ignored or overshadowed by the new step-siblings or half-siblings.
