I will say it. Starr is closer to Todd than her mother. Todd was there for her, not that it was Blair fault, but a cruel twist of fate. This *REAL FAMILY/BLAIR is another TnB myth. Starr's recollection of a real family will be of TnT, since that's who was there. Nigel has raised her since she moved into the mansion. When Todd is in town he is there for her 24/7. When Blair is in the same house with Starr she pawns her off to the hired help. -- At The Bayberry

In reply to: Regine 's message, "If I said that Starr doesn't care about Blair, I didn't mean it. I did mean to say that she probably would prefer her father to be and to live with Tea. Outside of Tea being there, she would want her mother and father together." on 22:40:54 03/18/01 Sun

Poor Starr, product of 3 broken homes, & like most kids of divorced couples ideally would love to live w/mommy & daddy as one happy family. However, if T&B are apart, Starr made it known she preferred to live w/Todd or TnT over staying w/mommy. I really don�t think her choice is much of a surprise considering how close Todd & his Shorty always were. Starr loves Blair but never shown the same depth of her attachment to daddy.

- Starr's memories of a happy, loving home are living w/Todd, w/Tee there or not. When Todd abandoned her, it devastated Starr, & Blair needed to prove a good mommy by filling his shoes, devoting herself to loving/caring for her uprooted, needy little girl. She failed miserably, Starr & Blair scenes were scarce not b/c they happened off-screen like some spin but b/c they barely interacted. Very sad, but yeah Nigel & Renee gave Starr MORE attention than her mommy in that mansion. (NT) -- Pilar, 12:41:42 03/19/01 Mon
  - Yeah, Jane, Todd IS there for Starr 24/7 when he's in town. Post-jail he came home, took time to reassure Starr he loved her. Contrast w/Blair who has gotten bail twice, & only worried about saving her own butt NOT how all this mess she created affected Starr. VERY telling what a bad parent Blair is lately.

    - The fact that Starr screams, whines, and blackmails to get what she wants is another Blairian trait that Starr could do without. How odd for Todd to be the one that is there for her. He kept to his secret desires to be there for Starr and Blair takes her for granted forgetting that she is very vulnerable to losing her now. What's to keep Todd from saying your crazy, she's mine now? -- jane, 13:03:06 03/19/01 Mon
      - GT and all have a wonderful soapy drama going. Starr needs Renee and Renee is Auntie Viki's Mum-in-law now. Nobody knows better that Renee what being in love with Todd means, it ain't easy, and Renee was there for Rebecca. Starr needs a gramma and Dorian is too flakey, Viki has to be psuedo mommy when Blair isn't around and Todd isn't in another relationship. Lot's of good soapy stuff, OLD FASHIONED soapy stuff :-) -- jane, 13:58:35 03/19/01 Mon
      - Yep Jane, I find Starr mimicking Blair's schrewish, lying, demanding nature. Blackmailing is pretty much Todd & Blair habit though. I don't find it odd that Todd is one to be there for Starr, only time she wasn't focus of his life was while he abandoned her. (NT) -- Pilar, 14:30:06 03/19/01 Mon
