Hello!!!!!!!! Is anyone else out there sick of hearing Stephanie and Eric refer to Thorne, Felicia and Ridge as "the children"? Especially in front of them? It's no wonder they have never made their own decisions except in bed!

You kind of lost me here. Ridge, Thorne, Felicia and Kristen are Eric's and Stephanie's children and will always be their children. That's an undisputed fact that cannot be changed.

What shes trying to say is there not freakin children anymore there well grown adaults. Does you mom and dad call you a child or a baby. Its weird think about it. Haha. Say your sitting at dinner table with you age 70s parents and your like Ridges age like say 45 and Thorn and Felecia like 35-40 and your parents keep mentioning as you as children. It would be weird you would be like hello mom dad were adaults with children and who are in there 20s!!!!!!!! lol. and Ridge isnt there child.

To Stephanie Felicia will always will be her baby or her last born. And yes they are their children but what Stephanie doesn't accept is Eric other children. It will be wrong for Eric just to concentrate on his children with Stephanie and forget the others. And it will be wrong for Eric to favor Rick more than Felicia.
But the real issue is Stephanie doesn't like the Logans and I think that is why she can't accept Rick and because he is Brooke son. Just so you know I can see her being on Steffy side but I never saw the closeness between them.

My parents still refer to me and my siblings as children and none of us feel offended. In fact, it warms my heart that they see us as their children and still uses that term of endearment.

However, what makes a difference is the way they treat us. You do not treat a teenager the way you treat a toddler. Likewise, you don't treat an adult the way you treat a teenager.

There are different stages in life and you treat people accordingly, whether they are your children or not. In my humble opinion, children are just that, children no matter what age they are.

ITA with you on this point you treat your children differently at different stages of their lives but they are always your children.
My parents also referred to myself and my siblings as their children when they were well into their 70's and we were all on the wrong side of 40.I wish they were both still with us to use that term of affection.
My children will always be my children no matter how old they or I get.
What are your parents supposed to call you as you get older
adult offspring?

Yes our children are always our children but I don't treat them like a child. When they are as old as Forrester are you don't treat them like babys. They are brats and if they where mine I would slap them silly.

Yes they are children Eric and Stephanie children but that is it. That is how they will always see them. But they are not children when they had children of their own. They are not children if Stephanie thinks that she can run the company with them. For they are adults and they need to act like an adults. For I am probably younger than Felicia and she couldn't even accept that her father is not married to her mother anymore. But it is not entire their fault when Stephanie doesn't see that they are grown.

Ha! ha! I am going to start calling my 18+ "come here adult offspring". I am sure he would give me the strangest look.

You are absolutely right. Your children will always be your children no matter what ages they are. Just be sure to treat them with the dignity and respect that is age appropriate.

that is correct, i still call my youngest son baby even though he is almost 6 feet tall and already working and holding a respectable position in his work, no matter how old are your children they will always be your baby specially to mothers...i don't see any reason why we should stop calling them children because they and always will even if their hairs already turned into grey....and am pretty sure that even if you are already adult but if you need comfort and assistance the first person you will think of is your parents.... and i admire stephanine for that..nothing will stop her for her children
