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

Following the court fiasco in
Following the court fiasco in June, it was suggested to me by my mother to write to Dr. Phil. I figured that it couldn't hurt and wrote a letter as a last stitch effort to help the situation, skids, etc. I did not hear back from anyone, regarding that letter.
Well, last Tuesday while I was scrolling through the news feed on Facebook, I noticed that the show was looking for step-families in crisis. Since I had saved the previous letter, I said "what the heck" and resent it. To my surprise, I received a call from a producer the following day. :jawdrop: Our conversation included different questions about our situation, why I though BM was a nut case, etc. After the call, I was e-mailed a questionnaire to fill out with more detail. The next day, the producer called DH and got his side of the situation. She then got BM's number. We were told that we were wanted for the show that is taping this Wednesday. However, we had to wait to see if BM would agree to go on the show (or at least let us talk about her).
Since we have not heard back from the producer, I'm assuming that BM said no (or she wouldn't answer the phone because she thought it was a bill collector }:) ) Because BM is a $$ grubbing, attention whore, I figured that she would have jumped at a chance for a free trip to LA and being on national television.
Guess she didn't want to be called out on her BS abuse allegations.
I certainly hope he doesn't
I certainly hope he doesn't make the SM out to be the problem.
