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

on one's face when you pass them would be a GREAT indicator of being in the SPS (step-parent society) ;)......no secret handshake or rings needed here....LOL

How about pins
with BM with a slash through it?
Sorry...
What is MG? Slow thinker today...
I would prefer it to NOT be a secret...
I really, truly WANT everyone to know that I am a step-parent!
One of my fears it that when out in public, people all think that the misbehaving, weird-walking, baby-taking, embarrassment of a child is actually MINE!!! :O
I want a button that lights up and says, "Don't blame me...I didn't create it!!!"
~Some days it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps! }:)
Oh that's another subject...
maybe the society can provide a variety of items: Shirts, purses, pins, bracelets (like those rubber ones used for breast cancer foundation etc...) Bumper stickers... Anything you can think of, that says
I AM NOT THE BM... LOL

How about a pic or something that says
The stepmom's here but where's the BM?
