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

Congratulations and cheers to a fulfilling life! Its best to be alone than unhappy!! One thing your situation and all of our situations have in common is the financial fears due to steps being unable to launch/be independent....
I am now faced with a future where SS21 will require to be supported forever if he doesnt get up and do something with his life (so far no GED, criminal background, unable to keep a job so has to work for dad and be paid for doing nothing)
Anyone with children should focus on their kids and not get into the dating game EVER or at least not until their kids have launched and are independent
Congratulations
Best of luck in your new life. Remember ". This is the first day, in the rest of your life "
