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
Good for her! Guess he'll
Good for her! Guess he'll have to find another live in babysitter/ bottle washer. }:)
I hope she didn't waste much
I hope she didn't waste much time with him! Good for her to put a stop to it! I hope her mom is over the moon about it.
She is, she hated them too.
She is, she hated them too. One of them told her (lady I work with) 'fuck you!' so she said she washed the kids mouth out with soap. I love it! The kids are 1st and 2nd grade. I guess the dad got kind of bent out of shape about that, she said, my house, my rules. They are not welcome here anymore if you will not discipline them. And yes, he used the daughter (gf) as a live in baby sitter. Naturally, lol.
Boy if a kid ever said that
Boy if a kid ever said that to me, they would have to call Child Protective Services because I would FUCK that kid UP. That's not something that naturally comes out of a kids mouth, that type of behavior is learned. He would never, EVER say that to me again. Good for both the mom and daughter!
Lady I work with is very old
Lady I work with is very old school southern, she doesn't put up with anybody's bullshit, haha.
Just the computer? Oh hell
Just the computer? Oh hell no. You need to take it as step further and issue your own punishment, because your DH obviously doesn't have the guts to administer discipline. Make him do all kinds of chores too and if he doesn't, start taking away other stuff.
If your DH complains about it, you need to put him on "punishment" too. Kids only do what they are allowed to get away with.
LOL Good for her! That
LOL
Good for her! That wouldn't have worked out for the kids or her.
Woohoo!!!
Woohoo!!!
