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

Essentially, that is what is happening to Thomas right now. He said himself that Hope has been making the majority of the decisions when it comes to Douglas' life and up until now, he has allowed it. Now he wants things to change and reestablish his place in Douglas' life. He has every right to do that.

agree. and i loved how calm and cool taylor was while she stuck it to Brooke

Not what I saw. I saw Brooke actually being concerned for a little boy, and Taylor being a witch that just wanted to stick it to Brooke. Taylor does not give a damn about Douglas, or Tom for that matter. She has proven that to the viewers for the last 10 years of the show, or however long it has been since she gifted Steffy all of her FC shares and a big fat nothing to the son she holds in medium esteem. LOL. And she proved it when she could not be bothered to help Tom raise his son, when he was acting like a psycho. Neither could Steffy for that matter. . But, I did love when Brooke finally called her out on where the family was when Hope was carrying their water for them, and Taylor was mad as hell. LOL. She let her mask slip and we saw the Sheila inside of her come to the surface. LOL. It explained a lot about why Taylor was licking Sheila's ear at the hospital and glaring at Li for being suspicious of her new bestie. Sheila and Taylor, are two peas in the pod. Both wanna be killers that cannot shoot straight. Both cowards that ran away and left their victims to die. Both are bitter psychos who think the world owes them something and both hate Brooke, because the Forrester men love her.

Taylor does not dislike Brooke because the Forrester men love her. True, given her track record, she does not understand it but that is not the underlying cause of her dislike. She loathes her because she is a blond wrecking ball with a baby voice who believes that she should forgiven for egregious thing she does because she is sorry, she doesn't understand why she did that, she was just following her heart or destiny made her do it. She despises her for all the things that she has done to destroy her family. She has earned every bit of Taylor's disgust.
