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

They are all teenagers. Social services is involved with her being 15 and pregnant but they are investigating bm not us. I'm not sure what is going on with that just that we met the social worker when she came to see our house and interview us. Sd didn't want to file a police report and I'm not sure what could be done 5 months later.

This is up to BM/DH/SD and police.....
You do not contact the boys
You do not contact the boys or their parents. DH does not contact them either. DH needs to talk to his lawyer. What will happen depends on the laws in your state regarding age of consent and what SD tells authorities happened.
Yes, children's services is investigating BM and not you, but you have a pregnant 15 year old in your home. Expect children's services to be talking to you too. (not investigate, talk too)
I'm with the others on this..
I'm with the others on this.. stay out of it!
It's my understanding though, at least in California, that if a child shows up to the Dr pregnant, and says anything about rape, doesn't the Dr have to report it to child services? Pretty sure they do... they are mandated reporters.
