What’s going to be the big letdown for Steffy and Thomas

All this Forrester huffing and puffing can’t go on. Something is going to happen. I suspect a few possibilities. Taylor’s halo will crack in an unsuspecting way. Steffy over focus on her parents reunion leaves Hayes vulnerable. Thomas and the family will learn that Hope is not just a nurse maid to Douglas and that he really really loves his family with Hope, Liam and Beth. They can’t be so dismissive of them. What’s your guess?


I dont see Taylor and Steffy as dismissive of Douglas' relationship with his mother. They just want Douglas to have the same opportunity to build the same type of relationship with his father.


I disagree. They want him to live full time with Thomas. None of them have even suggested any kind of compromise. It's all or nothing. That's dismissive of Hope's role in Douglas's life.


Yes, they want him to live full time with Thomas to build the trust with Douglas for him to know that he can count on his Dad as a parent. That is how Hope and Douglas nurtured their bond. Why is it so outlandish for Thomas to do the same? Hope hasn't suggested a compromise either. She is being dismissive of Thomas' role as well.


It's not required to live under the same roof to achieve what you're talking about and Thomas SHOULD have already achieved that with Douglas while in New York and while having JOINT custody with Hope for years. It's his fault he didn't do it, and Hope is right to be leery of how he'll raise Douglas if he couldn't even live up to a joint custody arrangement. Steffy and Taylor do not even acknowledge that.

Someone is lying. Either Hope is lying that Thomas has always had full access to Douglas (And I'm not talking about one time when Hope asked if he could return home. I'm talking about the abundance of years) or Taylor is lying that Hope is hogging the boy -- OR Thomas was lying when he said he was sorry he hadn't been around as much and he was sorry HE hadn't been in touch and that he'd been "trying" to catch up about Douglas through Hope.

Someone's lying. Who?


I don't think anyone is lying. Hope has been hogging Douglas. For good reason. Thomas was a hot mess and needed to get his act together. Hope feels that Thomas has full access to Thomas as long as she gets to control it. Thomas probably had a stretch of time that he wasn't visiting as much but it didnt appear to be a long period of time.


Hope has not been hogging Douglas. Taylor said that. She was the one that lied.

And I agree with Taylor.
