[QUOTE="LMLDallas78, post: 386352, member: 55682"] Let's look at the reasoning behind her behaviour, not an excuse but factual evidence. John Ross was most probably conceived during a "grey area" marital rape. Sue Ellen was physically abused when her and JR were discussing her pregnancy. She was neglected by her husband and by everyone else really who knew about her drinking. Cliff and her had an affair which she wasn't mentally strong enough to handle and he dumped her when she was going to leave JR for him. She was desperate, lonely and neglected so found comfort in her alcohol addiction. She was then locked away in a sanitarium by JR. Well she didn't refuse exactly, she was most probably suffering from alcohol withdrawl along with being in a deep post natal depression. That's a very misunderstood illness that is very real. (Linda played it brilliantly as usual) She sought help by herself by getting therapy and was ridiculed by JR for it. Her therapy resulted in her being able to show her son the love she felt. No excuse for her shooting JR apart from he deserved it! [/QUOTE]
