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 miss the days when BM used to jerk my H around and not let the skids come. *sigh*
Eh, I know, I know, I know. Of course it's better for the skids that they AREN'T being mentally and emotionally abused, but well... I sure do miss the days when the skids would *surprise* not be coming on their scheduled visit.
Anywho, now that school will be back in session, it will be regular EOW visits.

My son lives with his dad. I often wonder whether my son's step-mom is on here venting about him. He's 16 and acting like it. I don't feel sorry for his dad AT ALL, however I do feel sorry for her.

A whole summer you must be a saint. I feel that way after a weekend!

Oh no, they weren't here all summer! No way, I wouldn't be able to survive that. They just had LONG visits instead of just weekends. My SD isn't so bad, but damn SS just makes me nuts!
