Maddy, Excellent observations. I see why your name is LoyalStephie.
I also highly prize loyalty.
It is also glaringly obvioius that Boo ho, now that she has cut ties with
Fridge, has not shown any interest in her former step-children:
Thoms and the twins.

Excellent, excellent, excellent post Maddy! When it comes to Kristen and Felisha I'd like to point out that no one has a perfect relationship with their parents. There are times when the children will disagree with the parent etc and the relationship becomes strained. So Brookies can say all they want that Felisha and Kristen can't stand Stephanie, but it's not true.
And I agree GoStephanie, has Boo Ho even spared a thought for Thomas, Phoebe or Steffy? The answer is a resounding no.

You are right, niala. Parent-children relationships are not easy, even when there is
deep love. I would point out that one of the many UNFORGIVABLE things ErWeak
said to her in that very nasty and hurtful argument they had when he came back to
the house was to say to Stephanie that Stephanie sent their daughters running scrreaming
away. That is unforgivable for one parent to charge another parent. And pray, where
was ErWeak at the time? Too busy bonking Boo ho.

I have seen a scenes from I think episode 11 or something where Eric, Stephanie, Thorne, Kristen and Ridge were sitting around a breakfast table together. I looked at it and I was appalled by how bratty Kristen was back then. She had absolutely no respect for Stephanie and said something with a really bad attitude to Steph, who had done nothing to deserve that attitude. I realized that Kristen was extremely spoiled, just like Ridge. It was obnoxious. But Ridge wasn´t really obnoxious at this time. He was happy and carefree. Eric tried to meddle between Kristen & Steph a little while Steph just took the crappy attitude Kristen was giving her. Thorne was mocking Kristen about how long she took to get ready and ushered her away to get started. Eric commented that Stephanie is beautiful. And Ridge started looking a little serious knowing that Caroline would be over soon for the rehersal before their wedding.
Anyway, it didn´t look as though Steph was a horrible mother at all. Looked more like her children were bratty and spoiled due to their wealthy lifestyle.

Thanks, cecilia, for that recap. The writers just change history at their whim.
There's probably a whole new group of writers since then, but there's certainly no respect for any continuity or logic in their writing or story lines, even from a few months ago.
It's disrespectful to jerk the characters around like than, and the views too.

Cecilia, thank you so much for that piece of history!!! It just goes to show that yes, Stephanie is and has always been a good mother to her children. Eric's been sniffing around Boo Ho so long, that he's forgotten the days when Boo Ho simply didn't exist. (Ah yes, the good old days!) I think Boo Ho has the same effect on men as sniffing correction fluid or paint --- the premature death of many thousand brain cells. That could explain what happened to Eric, how he turned from loveable to leech. I agree with you GoStephanie, there probably isn't one writer left from those early days of B&B, they have no idea how it started or WHO started it. I think I read somewhere that the current writers aren't privy to old scripts. I'm not sure if it's true or not, but it certainly would explain a lot if it were true. And yes, Angel, you're so right! Boo Ho is so selfish, the only person she loves is herself, she will never love her own children or anyone else for that matter. Well done girls, well done!!! Bravo! |

I completely agree about Brooke and her not liking Steph.
There are several people that get along w/ the step mother more than their own mother or just as much, the same w/ mother in laws... depends on how the 'parents' act about the relationship etc and how they come out and do it all.
As far as Felicia and Kristen, Steph doesn't hate them she loves all her children, but I think they were jealous of all the attention that Ridge always got, I remember hearing this when Thorne came out about his issues etc and they were like that is just mother. However when Felicia came back she went and talked to Steph about it like an adult and realized that her mother loved her as much as she does Ridge.

Excellent post Cntrygurl! It's true, the writers have always made it seem like Ridge was Steph's (and Eric's too, might I add) favourite child. He got all the attention. But he got all the attention because he was rebellious and made some pretty bad decisions. Stephanie loves all her children equally.

Ridge is the rebel. When B&B started, Ridge was a total playboy. He made bad decisions after another, while the other children were not like that. So naturally, he gets most attention - and we all know how much Ridge NEEDS attention. He loved all attention he got and got used to it. Remember last year when he was so anti-Thorne and pleaded with Eric & Steph not to give Thorne any attention at all? Typical Ridge. Here E&S were giving Thorne some well deserved attention and Ridge starts to pout and act like a big baby.  |

Wonderful post Cecilia! Ridge needs to grow up! He's not the centre of the universe! Listening to Ridge argue with Taylor today was horrible! Everything was "me me me me me me me me me!!!" when he should be focussing on Thomas and Taylor.

Ridge sees himself as some kind of a victim. He had 2 wives fighting for him. Now he can barely hold on to one, and that one won´t take any crap from him, so he is all defencive and angry, probably wishing he had chosen Brooke cause she would take his crap most of the time unlike Taylor.

excellent post...
the thing about Brooke is that she secretly wants to be just like Stephanie. that's why she always cries about family. but in Brooke's case, she can't get past herself for her family, she is sooo self centered and egotistical that she doesn't have the brain to put her kids first.
That's why she is constantly trying to seek approval from Stephanie, she also knew that Steph's family had an unconditional love for her and resprected her decisions, that's why Brooke always wanted Steph's blessings in another one of her soulmate escapades.
Brooke will never be matriarch material....she's used fabric

Excellent posts RealityCheck and Cecilia! Brooke wants to be the anchor of the Forrester family, when all she can really be is a flotational device...long story short, she just isn't cutting it, she, in fact will never cut it. All Brooke wanted was to be Mrs Ridge Forrester, no matter how much of a jerk he was/is. All Brooke cares about is Brooke, and who to sleep with to make Brooke happy.

I agree.. Brooke sees how much Steph is needed and wanted in the family (excluding what they think now) and she wants to be that, she wants to have all the attention on her.
Ridge needs to grow up and think about his children and whoever he wants his wife to be if anyone left will even have him.

Excellent post Cntrygurl! Brooke wants to be the centre...of everything!
And I agree, Ridge needs to realise he's not 2 anymore and his temper tantrums are not sexy! He needs to be responsible, handle his duties as a man, husband, father, and business man.

hi!....i'm a new user....i'm from Portugal and 've been a day one fan of Stephanie and Eric. I've been reading the posts and loved remembering the good ol days when B&b started. I really miss those days... and yes i agree with you all....they were a family...with issues, but a family!! Eric and the boys working at Forrester with Kristen...Steph stopping by eric's office just to give him a kiss and chatt. And tough the years Stephanie and Eric were a team and good parents...they cared about their sons and daughter's life...they still do! I hate seeing how brooke came and destroyed that....i hate seeing eric beeing such a fool. Remember when he found his inspiration in Steph dy drawing models with her face?...he should know better now.... Stephanie has been more than a mother and wife...she's a darn good friend...a great professional ( she used to organize every fashion shows...and appeared with eric at the end giving him a bouquet of red roses)....a good stepmother, an excellent grandmother....and nobody, NOBODY loved eric more than she does and he knows that... I say lets give him hell... she should be CEO of Forrester for a change... and then bring them together....because there's nothing like STIC!!! (sorry for my pourly english....  |

Welcome "on board " Stephanderic, great to see another all time Stephanie and Eric fan here. I have loved them from day one, they are the cutest couple on the show. STIC TOGHTHER, STIC FOREVER  But Eric should be brought down first and tought a lession.It is about time that he realises that Stephanie is the best that EVER happened to him.And he´d better start treating her like his first priority, with love and respect. |

Welcome to the board, StephAndEric! No need to apologize for your english at all. It was great. I am a Stic fan from Sweden and I will always love them. But agree with you. Eric should be brought down from where he is now. I do not like his little high & mighty attitude that both he and Ridge have now. Can´t stand it at all. The good women on the show takes too much crap, while miss skanky ho gets all praise. So wrong!  |

stephanderic, welcome to the board! You express yourself very well. I agree that Stephanie needs to bring him down. My view is that ErWeak has crossed the line, as in crossed it so far that he's in the next universe. At one time, he and Stephanie were wonderful, but his betrayal of her with Boo ho is unforgivable, in my view, and his taste has continued to decline by taking up with Tackie. Stephanie deserves someone new, loyal, and absolutely fabulous! |

Excellent post GoStephanie! Eric's choice of women after leaving Stephanie has ruined him. It shows that it's all downhill without Stephanie, for Eric. And he'll pretty much bone anything. Stephanie should have a new romance, if Taylor (finally!) got one, why can't Steph?
