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

helping him study
I believe also builds his confidence level up, just by knowing that you take the time, and are "rooting" for him. It lets him know that he is important, and he does count! Good job Dawn, all skids/kids need what you do."~waiting on the world to change~"
Go Dawn!!! That's wonderful
Go Dawn!!! That's wonderful news indeed!
from my SD, the reason we're going through it all....:
o, btw, my dad and *northernsiren* are the best family a girl(and boy) could ever hope for. Thank you for helpping me through these hard times.
I hope this is the beginning...
of a great school year for him. It's a great start!

Way to go little man....
and Dawn of course!
It's the little things...
Well, I started to say it's the little things like this that keep us in the game but really this isn't a little thing... it's a pretty huge thing! Hopefully the start of many such tests and quizzes to come!
Happy!
D - that is so nice to hear such a positive outcome. It just goes to show that parenting whether it be bio or step can be very rewarding and I'm sure SS is very pround of himself as well. I am so happy to hear that!
yay!
Good for him, and well done Dawn
