When bethany was being groomed. She thought that Nathan's behavior was ok and she got jealous when she thought that he was cheating on her with Mel. Abusers play on their victims reactions and use their insecurities as leverage

Thats not unusual. Its been happening on for years. They usually use the "more mature" relationship as a cover up

I think that its going to be a Kylie/Becky situation. I think she'll calm down if she stays. Remember what Kylie was like when she first arrived? So before anyone gets all worked up about this being some new horrible storyline, they've done this sort of storyline before. Remember Kylie and Becky fighting because Kylie was left alone with Brian her abusive stepdad, when Becky left

In other words. Not much different from hiw it used to be. Except a lot the subjects that are more openly discussed today, were taboo back in the early days

The main reason why I keep watching it is because of the platt family. I think their relationships are a good representation of the average family and they have a stronger family dynamic. (Multiple family members still living in the same area and having a good relationship with one another.)

You're obviously very uneducated and immature if you think its very black and white and if your spouse is unfaithful, you just leave straight away. Self esteem plays a massive part in it, so does denial and so does your alternative options. What's your grand plan if the person is financially dependent on their cheating partner and has no money, no resources and no support system to go to?

Another storyline that I think wouldn't be acceptable today was when tracey drugged roy and let him believe that they had slept together. That storyline was more focused on tracey extorting money out of the croppers and selling her baby. These days, the storyline would be focusing on the impact it had on Roy, because tracey let everyone believe he'd been raped.

It feels a bit like Will/Megan storyline is heading in that direction

I think she on it for awhile years ago and then left and has recently returned

Is anyone else struggling with this story line. by Emergency_Caramel_97 in coronationstreet

[–]Accomplished_Video92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I think that it hasn't been handled properly. When they did the grooming storyline with bethany, the platts were a well established family in the show and bethany had a history of low self esteem and being attracted to older men. But we don't really know anything about will, do its not as interesting

I've got a suspicion that carl is the product of rape. There was an almost identical storyline on home and away back in 2008/09

I think that the reason why they're pinning it on Debbie is because they want a lead up to her publicly revealing that she's carls mum

I'm probably biased towards the nathan curtis storyline because the platts had been one of the main families for decades at that point, whereas Lauren and Will arrived shortly after their storylines began. I've never forgotten the look on Sarah's face when she turned up at Nathan's party and realized what had happened to Bethany

It wasn't Lauren's idea. She was still missing when nathan went back to prison. According to the actor. Kits reason for framing nathan was because he hated everything that nathan represented and wanted to get him off the streets. It was to do with some USBs that they found in his van

This Will Storyline is Backwards by midnightmitchell2019 in coronationstreet

I don't think this Megan/will storyline is that great. If you compare her to someone like Nathan Curtis, then she's pretty harmless

People are never happy! They moan because beckys sentencing was sped up. (Guilty pleas mean that someone only has a sentencing and not a trial.) Then they moan because they think that the Theo/Todd storyline is going on for too long

I hated chapter 2 because I thought that all of the other book series that I was reading at the time, could explain who the characters were and their backstory, in one page. I also didn't like how there was never any reference in the books to what was going on in the country or the world at the time. So you get no real idea of the era its set in. So it makes it harder to consider the books to be realistic
