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

He is 9 and he has no idea she did this. Supposedly he doesn't want to live with her. We have offered but he says he wants to stay with us. He has been having a lot of behavioral issues and ee thought it was the PAS from FMIL but now I wonder if BM hasn't been doing it to.

I do feed the kid I just don't let him have seconds until he eats everything on his plate, other wise he would live on mac and cheese and mashed potatoes. I also won't allow candy and junk food at 8pm or later.
We also have rules and he has to follow them or he is punished. His BM and grandparents allow him to do what he wants and his BM even let him eat cotton candy for dinner one night since that is what he wanted. He spends the night and most of the next day puking (he felt fine enough to hunt Easter eggs) because of it and I'm the abusive one. Whatever, BM needs to take off the rose colored glasses or get a clue.
