divorce entries
There are going to be many more divorce entries coming up with the coming generations. Currently, it is most difficult to find an easily accessible place for this entry. Please maybe could there be an obvious place to record divorce information that is easy to see where to put the information as well as annulment data

Both my husband and I were married previously and had a child. I want to list my child and his child on my family tree. How can I do this?

The following example was entered in beta.familysearch.org - where you can add people in test situations without affecting the production/live Family Tree. Most of the area which addresses this issue is under your DETAILS> Family Members section - the pictures did not like to load so I will need to remove them and attempt loading a few more.
Once you add your Spouse (if you have not already) - I suggest you SET PREFERRED to your current Spouse - then you can add the children:
If you - Jean - is the selected person for which you are viewing details (as above) - when you click ADD CHILD WITH AN UNKNOWN FATHER you'll be adding that child to yourself Only:
If you choose the ADD CHILD under you both (your marriage) - you will be adding the child to both of you as parents. You can do this if you have adopted the child - and can specify the adoptive relationship.
Then if you change the view to your Spouse's person page - you can add your Spouse's child through previous marriage - again with or without the mother (as above choosing ADD CHILD WITH UNKNOWN MOTHER):
If you add the children - with unknown mother and unknown father when you view your tree you'll need to change the Spouse to the Unknown/previous to view:
If you have adopted both children you can ADD CHILD under both you and Souse and then add/edit the Relationship Type (clicking the pencil icon next to the child):
If you have further questions - there are plenty of Community members here that can help - sorry the pictures didn't load well.
