– Rory’s mom made me laugh LOL…
– Abby needs to dial down the drama a bit. "I can’t drive the hospital." Umm, Abby…. your brother was arressted for selling drugs. He’s not dead! Calm down.
– Also – Abby saying "I want my brother back." What brother? You weren’t close for all these years and if you were he was a CHILD. That comment was a bit over played if you ask me.
– J.J. J.J. J.J. LOL… What can I say about this kid? Nothing – we said it all. HOWEVER what kills me is that you hate your mom dating this dude. So what does Daniel do? He shows up. What does Jen do? She kisses and hugs him. Now while I do NOT agree with J.J. at all – why add insult to injury Jen/Dan? So dumb!!!
– Why is Teresa on the show?
September 7, 2013 at 5:19 am #41017dvalParticipantI don’t agree that Dan should not have helped Abby get to the jail and I TOTALLY disagree with the “adding insult to injury”. JJ is a complete and utter mess. He doesn’t hate Daniel for any good reason on God’s green earth other than his father is dead. And nothing is going to change that. He was a drug dealer at boarding school and that was before he knew his mom had a boyfriend. So what is his real, true, legitimate excuse for his behavior other than he just feels like it? Nothing. He is a snarky, ill mannered, belligerent little twit who needs to spend some time in those same prison denims Sami is wearing and maybe he will come around. Other than some “tough love” he will never change.
September 7, 2013 at 9:03 am #41022BonbonParticipantsome kids are just born that way…it’s in their genes or something…nature, not nurture. Who can explain why my friend’s three boys were all raised the same and yet the youngest turned out to be just like JJ. Belligerent, disrespectful, always in trouble with the law. I strongly believe that it’s similar to a person who has an addiction and the only way they can “reform” is by sheer will-power. And most of them don’t want to bother or really want to change (they don’t think anything’s wrong with them) so they spend their entire lives in jail or one step ahead of the law.
I feel that’s JJ. And neither Jack’s death, him spending his life in boarding school, Jen’s parenting, nor anything else has anything to do with it. In fact, Teresa is probably in that same boat. And Vargas too. They all have the same attitude about life.
September 7, 2013 at 12:24 pm #41024bluebonnetParticipantabout the "adding insult to injury" thing. To me, from the get go, Jennifer has been handling this all wrong–and she still is. She has not really acted like a mature adult throughout this whole ordeal. She loses control with JJ when she should show her control. Hugging Daniel in front of JJ was just another example of the irritating way she "parents." Her voice and the way she yells at JJ is almost as useless as the way Rory’s mother reacted. Jennifer kept turning it around to herself ("How could you do this to me?" "You made me feel like a fool.") JJ needs a strong parent, that’s for sure, but Jennifer still hasn’t gotten there yet. She seems just as weak as she ever was.
September 7, 2013 at 2:02 pm #41032PattiParticipantso I have to go with the bad parenting on her part; however, that being said, it was totally wrong for Daniel to even be there. If he wanted to drive Abby to the hospital, which was nuts that she felt she couldn’t drive, I agree, Daniel could have dropped her off and told her if her or her mother needed her, they could call him. He did not have to go inside and have this make-up session in front of JJ’s eyes. That will only make him more hateful to them than he already is. Tough love may be the only way to go with JJ, but I thought Daniel showing up and then Jen rushing to him with a hug and a kiss did, indeed, threw salt into the wound. By the way, I’m so sick of everyone in Salem propping Dannifer. I sort of wish they would break them up. Maybe that will happen and maybe it won’t, but I’m pretty much over these two.
September 7, 2013 at 10:51 pm #41036caseyParticipantJJ with kid gloves. Oooo, we better watch out because maybe Dan and Jen might get affectionate in front of the 17 yr old “boy.” Please! Like this little twerp is so fragile – this drug dealing, law breaking twerp who has everyone under his thumb.
September 7, 2013 at 11:03 pm #41037justwonderingParticipantYes, JJ has issues. He spent his childhood away at boarding school. He certainly learned alot there, cause he got kicked out for drugs.
He missed saying goodby to his dad, very unfortunate but it happens quite often to soldiers, cops, and many other who die unexpectedly. But after all, Jack spent more time away than home!!
He came home and immediately starting judging his mom for getting on with her life (granted very quickly, but then Jack was away more than home).
He blames everyone for his troubles except himself. Time to grow up JJ and face the music.
As for Dan being at the police station, he brought Abigail and to see if he could help. Well, considering jen just learned that her son is as bad as everyone told her, she could use a friendly face. JJ has no right to complain cause he brought this on himself.
September 8, 2013 at 5:26 am #41039TFlo1018ParticipantWe almost always agree on all that is DOOL
