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

The Article sounds really good, but it's not that easy in real life lol.
It took a long time for our family to be as good as it is now ( to the point where ss call's me mom) And I definitely did some of the things on the list.
Also for the advice in this article you need to have a normal husband who knows how to parent and isn't afraid to be the bad guy to his children, somebody who stands up for his wife and sets boundaries.
That's the reason why I said it SOUNDS nice.

I think a separate book could be written for each - what a stepmom shouldn't say - a BM - a Disney Dad - AND a skid!!!
Except the stepmom book would be the only one that sells...

Number 10 to me is kind of pushing it!! That is the one of many problems we have in our house......Actually my DH has a big problem with treating kids equally. If he doesn't flinch when I say it to MY Children then why the HELL is it a big freakin deal when I say it to SD13 - she lives with me, my house, my time. These are just kids why are there so many rules; all these things that we as SP - gives THEM the upper hand!! I think the whole thing is silly
