Question
bs"d
Can step-children listen to music & continue as usual
after a step-parent has passed away?
Answer
If the step-parent was with you since a young age and was like a parent then there are some who have a custom to observe all the laws of mourning for them.
If not, then you are able to carry on as usual.
