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

You can't. I had an
You can't. I had an unplanned pregnancy. While I wasn't on the pill-I was clear on that-condom broke, used the morning after pill less than six hours later, still ended up pregnant. I lost the pregnancy. There are people out there who would say it was intentional, but it wasn't. I was pretty devastated to find out I was pregnant but figured I would do the right thing. The fella asked me to get an abortion, I told him I personally couldn't do that, but I also wasn't going to go after support. I have an established career and make great money. If he didn't want to be a dad I couldn't make him and didn't want to invest the energy to try to.
Even though it was unplanned and I was upset at first, I was heartbroken when I lost the pregnancy.
