Default Re: Passive in the sentence ''I would like you to be doing something''
Perfect, all is clear now.
Thanks to all for the explanations and expecially to Susan who has been particularly precise.

Indeed, the passive form ''I would like to be being helped by you'' or a similar one would be decidedly complex and rare.

But I wanted to know what between the two was grammatically correct so thank you!
