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

well, that depends. When she
well, that depends. When she is three months behind, she gets reported to the crdidt bureaus. The state is also supposed to go after her drivers license and passport, but they hardly ever do.
The Michigan Attorney General is supposed to tag someone with a felony non-support charge at three months, too, but they rarely do.
If you have a penis, of course then all bets are off and you will be prosecuted in a heartbeat.

if she were a man in that

we are fairly confident that the $417 and $1100 payments we got one day apart in August were her state and federal refund. Even with that, she is still over 10K in arrears.
Since MedusaCrapResaleShop is closing next month, I am sure she will try to get her support reduced again.
My sister's husband went over
My sister's husband went over $100,000 in arrears. They would only throw him in jail if she filed a complaint and since he was abusive, she didn't want to piss him off. Your state may be different.

it's not. DH (or I) would have to file a complaint with the Michigan Attorney General's office.

Friend of mine had an ex
Friend of mine had an ex husband who never paid CS on three kids. Every time he was brought up and threatened with jail sentence, he'd pay for few months. Then stop again. He owes her hundreds of thousands. Kids are long grown and they have grandkids now and he never ended up in jail and never was required to pay. They would take his tax return but that would be just bit and once he won 5k in lottery and she was sent a check by the state but that's it
