If this adoption is overturned then Hope should walk away

If a judge throws out the adoption papers, that would mean Douglas no longer has a legal living mother. And I am going to be cruel here, but why would Hope want to keep mothering a child she no longer has any say-so over where he goes to school, where he lives, nothing? Basically, the Hamilton monsters would be saying they want her to be his back up nanny. It would break her heart, but for her own well being, if this comes to pass, she should sever all ties with Douglas and Tom both. Why make herself more vulnerable to Taylor and Steffy's cruelty? It would make no sense at all. It would be devastating to Douglas, but as Taylor and Steffy seem to feel right now, he does not need a mother, especially Hope. So IMHO if this were my daughter, and as hard as it would be, I would advise her to let the child go, mourn him, and then move on, because I would not want my child to suffer anymore at the hands of the Hamilton monsters. All Hope could do then is pray that they would love Douglas enough not to ruin him. But, I doubt that he would stand much of a chance with these cruel and dangerous Hamilton's. I would hope that Liam and Brooke would have the good sense to counsel Hope to just walk away. She can still love him, and be there for him if he wants to talk to her, but if they get their way in this cruelty, Hope should not allow herself to be their victim anymore. It is one thing to sacrifice your life to save your child's life, but that is not the case here. Douglas will be with Eric and Donna, and Donna will protect him as best she can, but Hope should walk away and cease to be his mother figure in any way. JMHO


I agree. It's obvious Taylor and Steffy don't care anything at all about what Douglas' needs are or what his feelings for Hope are. I would hate to see this little boy lose a second mother, but Hope would need to walk away.


Taylor showed her true colors on how she feels about Tom a long time ago. She GAVE Steffy all her FC shares and gave Tom NOTHING. He even told her and others how much it hurt him, and she blew some nonsense up his skirt about how Steffy was suppose to give him 12.5% and she was protecting it for him. LOL. That must have made him feel real good, his younger sister was "protecting it" for him. Ridge felt so bad about what Taylor did to their son, he gave him 5% of his stock. That is just the tip of the iceberg of how Taylor has treated Tom like less than his sister Steffy. In fact, Taylor also treated Phoebe less than Steffy. I am sure the world renowned Quack would say it harkens back to when Steffy was kidnapped as a child. Personally, I think it harkens back to when Taylor crawled out of the ground the last time and Steffy (played by someone else) was all in on getting daddy to choose mommy, while the others were sympathetic to Brooke and Hope ad RJ. Bad move on their part, Big Momma held a grudge. So she slept with the man Phoebe loved, and cut Tom out financially. LOL


When Taylor dies the next time, they need to drive a stake through her heart, shoot her in the head (there is no brain) with a silver bullet, then cremate her for good measure and scatter her ashes over the Pacific.


I said the same thing a long time ago. Next time drive a stake through her black heart. And stuff some garlic in her mouth when they bury her face down in her coffin. That is how they use to deal with monsters in the old country.

She will still somehow find a way to return. The woman has more lives than a cat!
