Brooke hasn't mention using the toliet either,but i'm sure she has.Brooke made it very very very clear that she would go to Paris if Ridge couldn't make up his mind,to be with her.She didn't want to go,her kids didn't want to go.Brooke said she needed space away from Ridge as it would be too painful to see Ridge with Taylor,and since she needed space she may as well move to Paris,work at FI and take care of her mother.Katie and Donna told Brooke that what her mother wanted most was for Bridge to happen.Hell Beth told Ridge and Stephanie the same thing.Beth,Brooke and Ridge all got what they wanted.

  There is no way that Bell was going to have Brooke Logan moving to Paris,and off the show.It ain't happening,hence the Bridge reunion.As far as Brooke never talking about her mother or showing concern for her,thats in the writing.Brooke has moved on to saving FC.Of course Bell could have Brooke and her sisters mention their mother's illness,but he doesn't,so that's that.However just because we don't see it or hear it,doesn't really mean it's never mention.Who knows what happens when we don't see our faves.Taylor just happen to mention that she shares custody of Jack with Brooke.When did this happen? They never showed any such thing.It is what it is.Bell has a brand new shiny toy called Bratie and Beth may never be mention or seen again.

I would suppose her "grave concern" for her mother is filed somewhere with Taylor's "grave concern" for her criminal son.  You remember him?  The one who set fire to a man's house and blew up his car? 

Brooke's leaving town wasn't going to happen since the writers would never write Brooke out.  Taylor hasn't mentioned Thomas' problems because the writers don't want to deal with it right now.

The difference is Taylor and Ridge got help for Thomas. What have any of the Logan kids done to help their mother? ~i&b

That comparison is little off, Brooke's mother is terminally ill, Thomas went to therapy for his problems. I do not expect Brooke all of a sudden to pack up and go to Paris, but a mention here and there would be nice.

They didn't get that little criminal any help! He spent a week with James Warwicke and suffered no consequences for his murder attempts. No further mention has been made of what he did or ANYTHING. What exactly is Brooke supposed to do for her mother? She has Alzheimers! There is no cure, there is no amount of money that can help that. Beth has her husband with her to take care of her and all of Brooke's family tried to talk her OUT of moving to Paris. But, of course, Brooke found some happiness in her life so she's an awful daughter for not dropping everything and moving to Paris. LOL! What utter hypocrisy runs rampant on this board.

There is no difference in the situations. You want to take Brooke to task for not being ''gravely concerned'' about her mother. Well, Taylor isn't showing any ''grave concern'' for her criminal kid...an attempted murder who could strike again whenever it fits his fancy.

My point is that something was done for Thomas and last we saw he was doing well. No one is saying Crooke should singlehandedly be able to cure Alzheimers, that's ridiculous. But she went from threatening to move her kids to Paris to seemingly having no contact whatsoever for her mother. Family support can go a long way toward helping not only the Alzheimer's patient but also the primary caregiver who in this case is Stephen. From what we've seen, Crooke's motivation for moving to Paris had nothing to do with her mother and everything to do with lgetting Ridge back. ~i&b

A bit of a stretch there i&b! Brooke never threatened and never did she make up excuses or reasons why she was going to Paris. As usual, Brooke was straight forward with why she was going. She wanted to get away from Ridge and be with her Mother at the same time. There was no deciet...unlike others we know. alayna

Brooke's reason *threatening* to move to Paris, IMO, was her last ditch effort to win Ridge. It worked and we have not heard word one about Beth, or Paris. Another sign for me, that Brooke had used her Mother's illness.

Brooke loves her mother. Period. Taylor hasn't mentioned her father, who has a heart condition, in years. I guess, using i&b's rationale, Taylor doesn't give enough of a damn about her dad to go live in the same city with him (and give him that family comfort he must surely need) because she'd rather stay in L.A. and hope against hope that Ridge will one day return to her.

I do not know how this topic got turned into whether, or not Taylor loves her Father. The topic is about Brooke and her concern asbout her Mother, who has Alzheimer's. I know, I'm going to catch some flak, but I noticed, that no matter what you post, what you want to discuss, it does not fail, it will come back to Taylor, the most loved/hated character on B&B. It is very annoying, IMO.

(YAWN) And once again....the same could be said for topics about Taylor that get turned into to Brooke bashings. Haven't you realized by now that it goes both ways and posters on each side of the fence are just as guilty as the other. It's nothing new and I actually believe it's totally acceptable.

BTW...Brooke never made a threat to Ridge about going to Paris (she only told him she was leaving) and any attempts to say so is just an attempt to rewrite history. dd

bingo, I don't give a $hit what you ''noticed'' about my posts regarding Taylor. You have GOT to be kidding me with that ridiculous accusation that I turn topics about Brooke into ones about Taylor! I have just gone round the bend with two Taylor fans who did the EXACT same thing to my Taylor posts..made them about Brooke. Did you jump in there and tell them to not make those Taylor posts about Brooke? I didn't think so! And, my point about Taylor not moving to be with her father still stands! If Brooke can be accused of not being concerned about her mother because she hasn't moved to Paris to be with her, then Taylor can be accused of the very same thing for not moving to take care of her father and his heart problem.

Oh, and you're fooling yourself if you truly think that Taylor is the most loved character on B&B! Now, THAT'S a laugh!! Most hated...now that, I can buy.

I was not accusing YOU, made an observation.

If Crooke was really going to Paris out of concern for her mother, she would have simply gone. Instead, she made a big production to Ridge about moving there with the kids. It was very obvious she had no real intention of doing so, it was just a ploy to get Ridge back. And BTW, Taylor's dad has not been on the canvas in years. He has nothing to do with anything. Beth was just on a matter of weeks ago. ~i&b

So in other words I&B, Taylor hasn't been concerned with her Dad in years!!! And as someone mentioned above, Brooke never said she was only going to Paris for her Mother, she said it was because her and Ridge weren't together anymore and so she will go to Paris to be with Mother. They did get back together...so she didn't go!! So what...it's not like her Mother wanted her there anyway!?!!

Absolutely, Terri! And, yes, Taylor's father not being on canvas has PLENTY to do with the issue at hand. Brooke's mother isn't on canvas now, either, so if Brooke's concern for her mother can be thrown up then so can Taylor's concern for her father. When Taylor moves away to take care of her father, who isn't on canvas, then it can be said that Brooke should do the same for her mother, who is not on canvas. This entire discussion about Brooke not moving away to be with her mother is ENTIRELY preposterous, anyway. AS IF Brooke Logan Forrester was going to be written off the show under the pretense of moving to Paris to take care of her mother. It was never going to happen and it has nothing to do with her NOT being concerned about her mother. As another poster put it so eloquently, we don't see Brooke going to the toilet, either, but I'll bet you she does.
