Does it seem to you that Belle is always crying? I don't think there is one episode that she isn't just sobbing in. I get that her life is in shambles, but a lot of it is her fault.
She's a great crier though, so I need to give her a lot of credit for that.

The crying is a genuine classic symptommology demonstrated in those that have been previously diagnosed with post partum depression which Belle experienced a few months after Claire was born.
Hogan Sheffer took some time and research into understanding the nature of the condition to assess it properly and as Belle progressed away from it still had to include how emotional a woman still is after coming back into normalcy (whatever an individual believes normal to be for them that works) and child rearing as challenging but not impossible.
She cries but crying and yelling some is much better than holding in acting like your old enough to really handle all that crap ! Ladies lets give her a break . . . I know she is a character on a show, but obviously a show that many young woman watch who may be influenced by her behaviors and question their own. Offering advice from a realistic point of view is wiser than just complaining shes a 'whiner' . . .

I get what you're saying, but Claire is now four or five years old. At this points, it's getting a little old.
I feel like she made mistakes, she should own up to them instead of crying over them. I feel like the crying gets people no where. If you show you are truly sorry and not just scored of losing the person, then things would go better.

Oh no that little actress is only three but stocky, longer browner hair and a bit more mature-looking than the little cuties they had . . .

She is scared of loosing someone, it hurts to realise this, so tears are very normal, quite encouraged and I only worry when my clients in situations similar to this, don't shed a tear nor feel any emotion . . . just sitting there with a smirk on their face.

I agree, it seems she is always feeling sorry for herself. Do you think her and Shaun will get a divorce? Do you think she will end up with Phillip?

I think the line where she said that her and Shawn are soul mates was pretty telling. I think the writers are going to get them back together, but they could end up getting divorced first. I was sitting here thinking that if they are soul mates that in time Belle and Shawn will get back together.
I really don't think that Belle and Philip will get together. They don't seem like such a great couple to me. Although, Belle has changed so you never know. I guess I just hope that Belle and Shawn stay together so I am just trying to justify it.

She does cry a lot but I can relate to her on how confused she is and her pain. I do hope that things get better for her. Have a great day.

I really don't like what they have done to Belle's character she cries all the time and she lies alot too! I can't beleive she looked her mother straight in the eye and lied to her. Belle is getting what she deserves though she is the one who cheated on Shawn what does she expect for him to do.

I really dislike the character of Belle she has always irritated the hell out of me. Ever since she first came on she was a goody goody like Carrie and now she is a whiny mess who can't make up her mind which man she wants and is always in some sort of crisis.
