Yes I did and still do.It has always seemed to me that she didn't want Lindsey herself but she didn't want anyone else to have him either and had to show her a$$.This has been my beef with her for the past couple of years now.Her recent interviews compared to earlier ones are so disheartening and such a turn off IMO.Usually high profile people exhibit that kind of behavior when they first get famous b/c they haven't adjusted to the attention yet but I'd say 40 years is plenty of time to adjust.It seems that ever since she has been referred to as "a living legend" and an "icon" she has been a real egomaniac.Either that or she has to build herself up herself b/c she needs constant appraisal due to low self esteem issues and insecurities(which we all have),and MUST be noticed at all times.Kind of like when someone appears to be the life of the party and laughing and smiling all the time but is really sad and cries all the time when no one is around(sad clown syndrome).And I think the loss of her Mom has alot to do with it too b/c she was Stevie's rock,reality checker, safety net,psychologist,and anchor.I apologize to everyone for the long post but I was just discussing this with a friend and your post really struck a chord with me
.All of the above is in my non-professional humble opinion of course.Moderator,if this is in the wrong forum let me know and I will post it elsewhere.Still love her though....
