Etymology
The word stepson comes from the family part step-, used in words like stepmother and stepfather to show a link by marriage rather than by birth. Long ago, step- came from a word meaning 'orphan', which helps you remember that a stepson is a son of your spouse from an earlier relationship, not your own child.
