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

I'm so glad you had a stress
I'm so glad you had a stress free weekend and your DH had a good birthday. I know what you mean...when my former SD went into the mental hospital (and she definitely WAS faking), my ex started nagging me to visit her the NEXT day- after I spend all night in the ER with her, while she slept and I had to sit up in the freezing cold in a plastic chair. I was SO glad she was gone, but since she was faking anyway, she got out in two days.
It's such a relief to have the drama removed for awhile. I hope they keep her for a LONG time and she gets the help she needs.
I don't really believe that
I don't really believe that she wants to kill herself....but I do believe she needs help. I hope they keep her at least till she's 18 which is early Dec. Who knows what will happen to her when she's 18 tho - legally an adult.
