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

We do not involve attorneys in email.. but hey, what prevents you from forwarding or CCing her psycho b$tch emails on to her attorney? Maybe he will tell her to knock it off.
Its documentation,
Whenever we communicate with DH's ex via e-mail we CC HER attorney (mainly so that her attorney can see for herself what a crazy bitch she is representing). If need be we also send a copy to our attorney and we ALWAYS keep a copy for our files.
If there is a verbal conversation we write a brief summary going over the content of the conversation and send copies out for documentation purposes and to prevent bb from later lying about what was said.
When we e-mail my ex we keep a copy for our files, BCC our attorney and CC a friend for further documentation.
When it comes to these people you really have to C.Y.O.A. (Cover Your Own Ass).... if you aren't, I seriously suggest that you start.

Yes...
Everything is cc on ours and her attorney... standard procedure, but we don't email often either... only when necessary.
We did that...
She acted totally psycho this weekend so we sent her an email and CC-ed her attorney.
Her response was that we don't pay for her attorney's time thus we cannot CC her on emails INITIATED by us.
Who's response
Psycho said this? Too bad so sad. If the attorney said this... time to remind of free speech. I would forward the attorney the psycho emails and ask him to control his client.. it won't bode well if it needs to go to court.
Psycho said it.....
she is so desperate.....
