I know he has issues but i feel more sorry for Leanne. I would'nt put up with that behaviour.
I understood and sympathised when he was just lashing out in anger, but in Monday's episode he took great pleasure in bullying and threatening Leanne. That's more than anger management or impulse control issues. It's verging on sadistic! :eek:
I hope we're not going to end up with yet another psycho soap child as that doesn't feel right for Simon. Fingers crossed he receives the appropriate help and learns to control himself and stop resenting Leanne.
he is off to live with peter so leaving for a bit
Hope he stays away he is down right cruel to leanne. He abused her ...has he conveniently forgotton that. I would not want to see his angry ungrateful face every day
Coronation Street spoiler – Simon Barlow goes missing
The Barlows are sent into a panic during next week’s Coronation Street when Simon goes missing.
The Weatherfield school boy manages to talk his dad Peter and girlfriend Toyah Battersby and into letting him go to a party. But after agreeing the pair soon regret their decision when he goes missing and no one can get hold of him.
They are forced to admit what’s happened to Leanne Battersby who is beside herself with worry as everyone races off in search of Simon.
Leanne tears a strip off Toyah and Peter for their irresponsible behaviour and tells Toyah that she wouldn’t understand how scared she is as she’s not a mother.
A show insider said: “Leanne lashes out in the heat of the moment but it’s obviously a sensitive subject for Toyah so it’s pretty hurtful. But all Leanne can think about is Simon and whether he’s OK or not.”
I always thought it was strange that she got custody.
Coronation Street's Simon Barlow will spark concern with his dark behaviour after he's excluded from school next week.
Simon (Alex Bain) appeared to be back on the straight and narrow following his terrible behaviour a few years ago, but his parents will be left fearing that he's going off the rails again after learning some unsettling information.
Leanne (Jane Danson) will be concerned after getting a call from her stepson's school informing her that Simon's in trouble and has been excluded as punishment.
A furious Leanne is forced to relay the news back to Peter, explaining how Simon's been selling vodka at school, which he'd stolen from the pub.
With Leanne quick to blame Peter for Simon's naughty behaviour, a huge row between the pair ensues and it's not long before Toyah is weighing in on it as well.
Shocked to hear that Simon has been stealing alcohol from them, Toyah jumps to even more conclusions about the teenager – wondering if he was also responsible for the bottle that went missing at Christmas.
Knowing he can't let his son take the blame for his own mistake, Peter sheepishly steps in and admits that the festive mishap was actually down to him.
Toyah's subsequently shaken to hear that Peter was nearly tempted back to the bottle, but can the clan put their differences aside for the sake of Simon? Or is the schoolboy heading off the rails again?
Coronation Street airs these scenes on Monday, January 15 at 7.30pm and 8.30pm on ITV.

He has gone worse if that was possible
I thought Simon was seeing someone from his time hurting Leanne for his issues
alex is to be a daddy
As Captain Mainwaring used to say.... "Stupid Boy!"
OH DEAR .. Coronation Street star Alex Bain splits from pregnant 16-year-old girlfriend.
The young actor's former girlfriend revealed the news as she shared another picture of her baby scan
The couple announced they were to become parents earlier this summer and posted a scan of their unborn child but things have done horribly wrong since - and now they’ve split.
Levi Selby, 16, is being comforted by family and friends as she prepares to swap High School for parenthood.
A source told The Sun: “She was proud to tell the world she and Alex were going to be parents. But things haven’t been running smoothly between them and now he’s told her it’s over. Everyone’s hoping it’s not because he already feels tied down.”
Levi is due in December and is hoping Alex - who playes troubled teen Simon Barlow - will uphold his responsibilities.
She recently announced on social media that the couple are expecting a baby girl - but she is now preparing to go it alone.
Shame :(
I'm afraid I have what I guess may be considered to be a very old fashioned view of such conduct by a father to be. But boot and backside come to mind for starters.
Coronation Street teen Simon Barlow fears for his safety next week after his dad Peter drops a bombshell.
Simon (Alex Bain) becomes convinced that his bullying ordeal will start all over again when he learns that Peter has suspended Vicky Jefferies at the factory.
A few weeks ago, Simon was being targeted by friends of gang leader Tyler Jefferies, who were punishing him for giving evidence at Tyler's court case.
Tyler's mates only backed off when Peter (Chris Gascoyne) gave the thug's mum Vicky a job at Underworld, providing her with an incentive to put her sly son back in line.

Next week, Peter is pushed to breaking point as he starts to lose patience over Vicky's bad behaviour at work.
Peter desperately wishes he could fire Vicky (Kerri Quinn), but knows he can't as the consequences would be dire for Simon.
Later in the week, Peter reaches the end of his tether with Vicky goading Sinead Tinker (Katie McGlynn) on the factory floor, so he bans the use of all mobile phones to restore order.

When Sinead defies the new rule and answers her phone because the hospital are ringing about collecting her biopsy results, Vicky reports her to Peter and also tries to grab her phone.
A nasty fight ensues and Peter finally takes action by suspending both women for a week.
When Peter tells Simon about Vicky's punishment, the teen is horrified and knows that it's only a matter of time before Tyler starts making his life hell again.
The situation only grows more stressful for Peter when Fiz Stape and Izzy Armstrong warn that they'll walk out if Vicky is allowed back.
Later, Peter hatches a sneaky plan to get Vicky a job with a rival company instead. Is this the answer to his prayers?

Father to baby girl Lydia-Rose .
Will there be romance between Simon and Asha ???
Simon has a big storyline involving Leanne, Nick and Sam coming up
Give the guy a break. It would be nice if something good happened for him for a change
what's wrong with sam he needs an organ
was sam in hospital again when nick bumped into natasha
Hmm, I am now going into scriptwriter mode.
X ray reveals something, Doc contacts family, Sam has a serious health condition, normal treatment does not work, he needs a transplant of some sort, Nick is no match but Simon is.
Nick and Leanne become close as Simon is Sam's only hope, which unites the Tisley/Battersby/Barlow unit.
Please put pay check in the post'😀
