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

That was nauseating and evil. What a terribly sick man.
Not condoning this guy's
Not condoning this guy's heinous actions, however, he probably ran up against the infamous New York State Family Court gristmill that literally up ends biodads and shakes them until they are drained of every penny they own; then the court does not enforce visitation, but winks at the BMs who withhold visitation and start on their PAS quest.
I'm sure he was shocked to find out that here in NY, he will be stripped of every bit of income with no self support reserve for the next 21+ years, spend tens of thousands of dollars on attorneys who half heartedly represent biodads knowing that it is a losing battle in this state, then be denied visitation over and over without any recourse.
This is a very sad tragedy. One of many where the father literally goes bezerk when faced with the horrendous NYS "family" court system.
