Dear Valued Users,
It's with a heavy heart that we announce the permanent closure of StepTalk.org on August 31st, 2025.
This decision wasn't an easy one. For over twenty years, StepTalk has been a source of support for stepparents around the world! However, over the years, the costs associated with maintaining and upgrading the site to remain secure, meet current standards and maintain availability have become unsustainable.
We are incredibly grateful for your support, contributions and the community you've helped us build. Your engagement has made StepTalk.org a special place and we cherish the memories and connections made here.
We would especially like to thank Aniki for volunteering to be a moderator and for caring so much.
Thank you for being a part of our journey and we wish you all the best.
Sincerely,
Dawn and The StepTalk Team

LOL. I'm going through the same thing as we speak. Prince was up late on xbox. Which pissed me off because I could hear his game downstairs. DH did nothing. Chuckles was on his iPad late. And they have no school today.
I woke them up at 11:00 to my dismay because DH feels they should be able to sleep in when they have no school and go back to Swamp Holes house. Chuckles is laying on the couch. Prince decides to take a shower :O ( he hasn't brushed his teeth here for 2 weeks :sick: )
They still need to pack, Prince has dishes and has to pick up his xbox crap before they go back.
I just want them out of here!!!!
DH will be getting a long email from me with some new rules from me today, I'm done.

15 minutes. He's changed out of his PJs at least but only because the phone rang. My Dad called to ask me something. If the phone didn't rang SS would have surely not moved. SS has moved from the couch to the bedroom which I suppose is progress.

When ours do this I get pissed as shit because sure enough they will forget to pack something.. like school books, homework assignments, a musical instrument.... and who runs to their beck and call to drive the missing items to them in a rush??? That's right... DH. Way to teach personal accountability DH. Way. To. Go.
