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

Agreed....
We have a date-day planned tomorrow.............Mmmmm.
date day?
what is this date day??? i think i remember back before we lived together with ss15
Yes - we do date-day's too
Date-days are great when you can get them
A Step parent is in a no win role
Luckily our visitation schedule
allows us to have EOW off. And since we don't have any kids of our own yet we take advantage. This weekend - massage therapist appointments, shopping, sushi. I know when we are lucky enough to get pregnant date days will come to a screeching halt!
Yes!
I can relate! But with an added bonus for me. Since I put a halt to sleepover EOW, my dh goes to visit the man/child & I get extra time at home ALONE. I think I'll get a pedicure today!
When he brought him here---it was emotionally tough.
How do you manage?
I'm just thinking, what could be worse than having the ss I have? 2 of them!! How do you do it? I feel the same way, my SS8 is going fishing 2 days with FIL, starting tomorrow, and I CAN'T WAIT!! Sweet peace, sweet sanity, sweet tranquility, 2yro bio son playing peacefully, happily, not having to watch SS meltdown. Blood pressure back to within normal range. lol.
