Corrie Spoiler - Sean & Violet
According to todays Daily Star, Sean and Violet are to "get together" in order for Sean to be a dad before he's too old. Violet will volunteer her services to him as they are close friends.
Could be a good storyline and close to home for many gay men who yearn to be a father Any opinions anyone? |

Too early too judge. I reckon it will be a flash in the pan storyline, and is most likely not to happen. (To the full extent anyway) Violet is already embroiled in storylines so can;t see them complicating her character...

sounds good, i don't think it should happen anytime soon, but maybe next year, anything for more Voilet, she's very underused.

This sounds very unlikely to me.
What on earth does that mean - Sean to be a dad before he's too old? He's only in his 20s, he could become a dad for the next few decades! I think it might be something they discuss, but I doubt it would actually happen. FA did this storyline last year. |

The thinking being she's been hurt by all the men in her life, the only one who won't hurt her is a gay man! lol!

Yeah, I think Sean and Violet will probably discuss this, but I don't think they will go ahead with it.
I can't imagine that TPTB would want to give Sean a child as I think it'll probably limit the amount of comedy they can do with him. Laura xx |

Good GOD I hope this never happens.
This is an inappropriate storyline. For a start Sean isn't fit to have kids with anyone and he doesn't even have his own house or flat. Personally I think same sex couples should not be allowed to look after children. I'm fed up with gay people wanting all the rights under the sun, but not thinking about the rights of the children. Children's welfare is more important than all this rights rubbish. Can you imagine the grief a child would get for being brought up by a gay or lesbian couple? And I'm a bisexual guy. |

I cannot believe people are saying this will be good it sounds terrible and I can't see what Corri have gain by doing it apart from points. Sean would be an awful dad and I can't even see a character like Violet agreeing to do this.

Having seen the actual article in the Star now, it's clearly not something they are taking seriously.The actor said he likes the sound of it because it has comedy potential! I don't see anything comical about having a baby for the sake of it. And one line probably sums it up ...
'They fancy the idea of bringing up a child together ...' They make it sound like a whim they just fancy indulging in at the time. What happens when the idea no longer appeals?! Presumably the joke is he doesn't manage it and thinks it's not worth the effort, or some such abrupt end to the storyline! Anyway, it happens in January, apparently. |

It was made up over a year ago by a poster on DS. Violet had a 'secret' when she first appeared, we were told in TV magazines, a secret that made her reluctant to sleep with Jason. Someone started a thread saying wonder what it is, and everyone had a guess. Some said she was married, some said she was gay ... and someone suggested it would be dramatic if she was HIV, and as that was the most interesting idea anyone came up with, it developed a life of its own as some unfounded rumours do, and suddenly it was a storyline! The actual secret was just that she had had a relationship with a married man much older than she was. Someone her Dad knew and it made her wary of getting involved intimately with Jason. Boring compared to the HIV suggestion a poster came up with, but that was never gonna happen, and more than it would turn out Violet was gay or married!

I quite agree, Mrs Potts. If Sean want to be a father (and as some of you pointed out he has decades in which to do this) why can''t he adopt, like some women do as a last resort. |

Further the housing issue has nothing to do with bringing up the child as I'm sure it would get a lot of love and attention in the Grimshaw household. |

Yes gay people should be treated the same as everyone else, they should be allowed to marry and not be discriminated against by anyone, but being allowed to have kids is a step too far because you are bringing someone else into the equation and it's no longer just about two adults being allowed to live whatever lifestyle they wish.
I just don't like this "Well they've got something I can't have, so I'll get all pissy about it until I can get it too!" attitude that all sorts of people have these days. Some of them don't think about the consequences it might have on a child, they just think of themselves and their 'rights'. Sorry if you're so offended but this is just my personal view of things. I haven't tried to 'pass it off' whatever you mean by that, and I'm not a bigot. |

Most children who are brought up without mothers or fathers don't turn out to be unbalanced or unloved - whether a mother/father, two fathers or two mothers love a child is all that matters. And PS - I'm not gay - it just really hacks me off to see people who have so much to offer be discriminated by others who arent fit to judge. |

I do however think that they should push at least for the equal right to adopt for example because they can provide as stable as home as heterosexual couples often |

I would guess Sean and Violet probably get drunk and have a laugh about how it would be if they had a kid together, but I REALLY can't imagine Sean actually attempting to have sex with Violet. |
