First of all, they have Amanda and Jake and everyone else behaving like cowering wimps because of David. There is no court in America that would allow a father to take a child away from it's mother unless the mother was proven UNFIT. If David swiped the baby he would be charged with kidnapping. Amanda could never be proven an unfit mother and now that she is married to Jake, again, there is no court that would allow full custody to David. What would be required is for visitation rights. This storyline needs to end now. I also hate seeing Jake portrayed as a man who is double crossing and lying to the woman he supposedly loves. |

We just don't hear it on the 6 and 10'oclock news. There are many more cases that give custody to the wrong parent(s) may it be the father or the mother (w/new spouse's or not). And, There are extremely many more that land the child or children into the right custodian(s)(w/new spouse's or not). You probably think that I just want to dispute you on this. But I'm not, I do agree w/you overall. Just keep in mind that there is "corruption" everywhere here in America. Just b/c we don't always see it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. And, I apologize b/4 hand if I am dead wrong about this. I don't like a lot of these storylines either and I feel that I could do just as good writing as the writers on these soaps, it' always the writer(s)choice. It's his world, and his call. And, about Jake that I will differ you on totally. It is that if we like someone we will bend the rules a bit more than for the one we like less. I used to call Jake, "Jake the Snake"! I just don't like him. But I can say that I have settled a bit now that he is back w/Amanda. But the "off-twisted" storylines that we don't like someone else will.

Say what you want about David but if the baby is his he a right to see it. I think Tad and Liza were talking about this exact same thing on Fridays show. |

Not to mention, that David already signed away his rights. No court is just gonna simply overlook that. |

It's terribly unrealistic. and THINK ABOUT THIS. Why would ALL of these people that don't even know Amanda be willing to help her? When Frankie was new in town. He didn't even know Amanda or David. Yet, he was willing to risk his job changing the time of when the baby was conceived. Why would he risk his job for a woman he doesn't even know? And think about the doctors that are putting up a fake death certificate. Why would they risk getting put to jail for a woman they don't know!? That makes NO SENSE at all whatsoever. It's totally STUPID. There is not a single person in this WORLD that is willing to throw everything away for a perfect stranger. |

Aside from this story line being unrealistic, it is actually making me feel sorry for David, and that is something I have never done before. I always loved to hate him. He is the best villain on the show. But, when you think that every child connected to him, except Marissa, has died, it is pretty sad, and then his brother Leo died and he did love Greenlee as well, and she is "gone". And, don't forget what a psycho mother he had. How depressing his life is. |
