Ok looking through all the threads on the trek forum i have found that Wesley name is mentioned quite a few times... and mostly in a horrible way....

I must admit in the beginning I disliked the obnoxious whiny charactor of Wesley Crusher.

But as he developed and his feelings and history became more evident I changed my opinion.
Every show has to have a charactor you love to hate and I think for TNG it was Wesley ...LOL!!!!

I know it

I voted yes, not because he was a kid (the Enterprise-D was meant to be full of them, only Wesley and Alexander were the only ones that we got to see.)

And not because he was precocious.

It's just that it got to the stage where he single-handedly saved the ship every week. All these experienced best of the best Starfleet officers but an early teen saves them from themselves again. And then other times he did some stupid things even for a teenager. Some of the times he saved the ship it was his fault anyway.

And on the subject, who is in charge of the Health and Safety assessments of these 24th Century school science projects?

umm I know, i'll make a static warp bubble today...

While teachers not looking we'll put this gagh in his tea, and these nanites down Data's back.

There are some real reasons to do with the script, why Wesley was an unlikeable character though. He was never portrayed as a normal teenager with normal teenage problems. I said there were supposed to be other teenagers on board, but where were they, he didn't hang out with them. Instead, he did his homework and was respectful to his mother. He was too smart, and he was allowed to brag about it too much for his own good.

far too much bragging....
