Thanks for saying this. I don't know what ellabelle was talking about, Stuart and Adam treated Scott like nothing less than family. And like you said Adam loved Skye and he loved Bess/ Miranda too (and was the only decent person in that whole story by, ya know, WANTING to give Bianca back her baby even if they tried to paint him as just not caring because the baby wasn't his blood relation).

Laura Harrier is giving me Denise Cosby realness in that video (which is awesome and informative and VERY well done).

For the record, my ex-husband and I were planning to adopt internationally when fertility treatment ended up working out for us. Some of our very dearest friends and relatives are adopted, and it's something I only view positively. I am NOT talking about adoption in general. I am talking about ADAM CHANDLER.

Adam arranged an entire seduction of Dixie and then tried to lock her in a mental institution to take their son because he wanted a blood heir. He wrecked his marriage to Brooke over the desire for a biological child. He bought a whole freaking sperm bank because he was adamant about having a biological child with Liza. Think back to Bess/Miranda and how Erica got through to Adam: she reminded him that Chandlers have to be REAL Chandler, the pedigree has to be real, and if Bess isn't really JR's son, then she's not really a Chandler to him, is she? What did Adam do? He brought the baby to the hospital for a DNA test without telling JR.

Yes, Adam loves Stuart and would always look after Scott because of Stuart, but there's a difference between making sure someone can pay the bills and letting someone practically run the family business you built from the ground up and intended to go to the blood heirs you so desperately wanted. THAT was my point - that it seemed out of character for Adam to suddenly make Scott and heir and pit him against JR and make JR compete for something that Adam built for him to have in the first place.

Add to that that Scott was a pretty boring character to me, and it was a huge waste of airtime to me.

ETA: Forgot about Skye, but IIRC Adam didn't have much of a relationship at all with Skye after he found out she wasn't a blood Chandler after all. She left Pine Valley and wasn't mentioned again. He bent over backward to have a relationship with Haley when he found out she was his daughter. Why did everyone give a collective "WTF?" to the weird mention that oh yeah, Adam had this son Miguel that he didn't raise? It was because the idea that Adam Chandler had a biological son out there, an heir, that he didn't raise or really acknowledge was SO massively out of character that it was ridiculous!

I love the next segment where Dorothy Lyman's Opal talks trash with Myrtle about Edna's outfit at the party. If anyone knows what's cheap....
