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
Sorry I don't know your case
Sorry I don't know your case
. Would she be following that schedule or would BF? If BM wanted me to have my lawyer write up a parenting plan it would surely be to my advantage in the end. Not very intelligent is she? LOL
Yea, her proposals are
Yea, her proposals are ignorant. She wants ALL of their school vacations and that includes a "majority" of summer. UM, no.
Our attorney typed up what the court gave her already. It sounds dumb to me on some parts but serves her right on others. You win some, you lose some.
She got:
SD chooses her own visitation.
SS goes EVERY weekend (which was ordered a year ago and she HAS never done), 7 days at Spring Break (although we have him for Easter Holiday she gets the rest), the month of July (with EOWE with us) and he comes home in August TWO weeks before school starts. That means if school starts on August 15th, he comes home the 1st. If school starts on August 22nd, he would spend the first week of August with her and then come home for his two weeks.
Every weekend sucks but the summer schedule rocks. She is going to be pissed but that is what was ordered in court and she has refused to budge in time. She doesn't want to go to trial (she is losing) and she wants to settle. But she is not going to like this. Be ready to hear her head explode across America!
