I don't understand why they didn't have Toyah move back to Corrie after finding work at the medical clinic that is so close by that Rana walks to it in scrubs. It's not like the show didn't know this storyline was coming.Marichahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00295287855690799143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-20965375354135157372017-05-03T19:12:55.534+01:002017-05-03T19:12:55.534+01:00Toyah is a trained counselor, or so we've been...Toyah is a trained counselor, or so we've been told.

I think it's being handled marvelously. Its the aftermath... typically in Corrie, the impact of what has happened seems to always dissolve into the dust, and there is no focus on recovery and what would be required for a teenager to get the support needed to return to 'normal' (if that's even possible).

It's completely contrived that this family of people who can't shut up about what the others are doing or have done isn't made aware of what's happening to Bethany. Sarah has time to get overheard by Shona discussing what David did last year but doesn't find it relevant to tell Gail that Bethany is dating a creep,was staying out Marichahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00295287855690799143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-40194990296501222492017-05-03T18:11:11.535+01:002017-05-03T18:11:11.535+01:00Lucy has been brilliant, acting this.

Surely she would do all she could to track Nathan down online. Also, why not contact the police? They need not say who contacted them but surely, if they at least made their presence felt, this horror might be brought to a close earlier. It's not as if grooming has not been in the news for at least the last 2 years.

Now that Bethany's left home, Sarah can't say that she doesn't want to push her daughter further away by interfering. She's already away. Why is Sarah not curious about Nathan, checking him out on social media or the grapevine? If she's worried but doesn't want to tell her family, she could go on-line to find Humpty Dumptyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08968124501003519978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-86832863601752100912017-05-03T16:04:27.593+01:002017-05-03T16:04:27.593+01:00Thank you RUth for your brave treatment of a diffi...Thank you RUth for your brave treatment of a difficult subject!dulyquotedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14996796131326765861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-14136307907809091362017-05-03T15:27:25.254+01:002017-05-03T15:27:25.254+01:00I think it's been done really well.

I am a bit frustrated that Sarah hasn't seemingly told the rest of the family her fears when it seemed to me that she could tell that her daughter isn't as happy as she pretends.

There are many things bugging me now about the show but this I flat out can't take. Maybe I will return later who knows.mayann57https://www.blogger.com/profile/01076927586797092711noreply@blogger.com
