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
Awe, poor kid. But honestly,
Awe, poor kid. But honestly, life is probably easier without all the mess of her being able to be inconsistent all the time. She'll have a good experience with you.

My SD13 went to her first
My SD13 went to her first 'formal' a couple weeks ago. BM didn't call or ask anything either. She never calls the skids. I felt really bad for SD when her mom came to pick them up for visitation, and she ran out to show her the dress she got to wear to her formal (we did notify BM, and even sent her a pic afterword). I was just thinking how this BM doesn't give a damn what this girl wore, what she did, nothing. Poor kids excitement is for nothing.
