He HATES her? What in the world did she do that was so terrible he’d tell her he hates her? That’s a pretty strong statement. I really don’t like the way they are writing for Will. I know everybody loves that he’s saying to her what we’d all like to say to her but I still don’t think his statements are appropriate for a young boy to be saying to his mother. Geeze, it’s not like she’s a drug addict or an alcoholic that hangs out in bars all the time. Yes, Sami’s done some dumb things and told some lies but, come on, does that justify Will to talk to her like that? I don’t think so.
As far as him disagreeing with her choices of men in her life, that’s totally none of his business. He’s old enough to understand that she makes that decision and the best thing for him to do is try to accept her choice and live with it. I’ve never understood when children think they have the right to tell their single parents who and who they should not become involved with. JMO
with your post. Unfortunately, this is the way kids are acting today. They are not taught respect. They feel they run the show and it should be their way. I know I could never get away with a lot of this stuff.
Up until the "hate" statement I was with Will. I think hate is far too strong a word. He doesn’t hate her and he shouldn’t have said it.
How many men has Will been through with Sami? I mean, he’s a kid. It’s her job to support him, not vice-versa. And he is not being just a typical teenager, he is speaking the truth when it comes to Sami and her choices. She always seems to gravitate to the people who will ultimately hurt her and Will knows it. HE’s the one supposed to be making these mistakes, not mommy. He hates her choices, not necessarily her and maybe he wants her to grow up so he can enjoy being young. Criminey, she is just a character and sometimes I hate her, LOL.
but then some parents deserve hate – not all of us grew up with a decent set of "parents" like Ozzie and Harriet Nelson – I feel sorry for Will – Sami shouldn’t be called a parent – the blue box here isn’t large enough to list all of Sami’s mistakes, sins, oopsies or whatever one wishes to call them.
Remember these? She lied about Grace being adopted using forged fake birth documents. She aided EJ in alluding the police so he could get out of Salem. She had Lexie inform Carrie that the kids that Carrie and Austin would have birth defects. Sami commited theft when she got into Victor’s to steal the tape of her confession. She drugged and raped Austin. Sami coherced Victor into getting Austin sent to Hawaii. She commited auto theft more than once by stealing Austin’s car. She seduced a mailman to steal a package with the tape in it. Sami brandished a weapon on Lucas and Kate about Franco’s killing. She lied about Lucas hitting Will. Lied about who Will’s father was. She blackmailed Kate. Change paternity test on Belle (her sister). Kidnapped Belle.
The list goes on and on and on…so I don’t think that Will should be raised by Sami, or respect Sami. She is one of my favorite characters but when I look at the list above and recount all that she has done – no, I can’t put her on a fit parent list for Will or any of her kids. If you are raised by wolves – you are going to be a wolf.
I agree kids shouldn’t use the hate word when it pertains to their parents but I’ve never had a parent like Sami or any of the parents in Salem.
Will is embarassed by Sami’s behavior. He just starts trusting her and she does it again. She ruins every relationship she has with her lies and secrets and all this is either done in public or uncovered in public so I’m sure Will’s been the laughing stock of his friends and classmates his entire life. He’s tried every other way to get her to listen to reason and grow up and it’s fallen on deaf ears so I’m sure this was his way to shock her into listening but we all know it won’t work.
not Marlena, not Roman, not Brady, or even Caroline. Will may be the only one who can make her see the error of her ways, and they are errors in every sense of the word. Will has watched Sami destroy herself and her family and he knows she is a pathological liar, and respect aside, he may have just reached the end of it where forgive and forget is concerned. I’m sure he doesn’t ‘hate’ his mother, but somebody has to make her sit up and notice, and if Will can be successful in making his mother aware of her self-destructing decisions, then I say let him try. The truth hurts, and Sami should realize that she is hurting her children more than helping them. That being said, it did amuse me when he remarked to Sami, "hanging out with my mom — not cool," yet beforehand he was hanging out with Grandma Kate and bonding with Step-grandpa Stefano. You’re right, DeeLan, he is truly embarrassed by the lot of them, so perhaps this is the way he chooses to ‘save’ his mother rather than disown her. She does seem to take offense to Will’s rejection and criticism of her way beyond anyone else’s.
that’s what I think. Remember Sami’s behavior at Wills age? WAY worse. Remember how she used to talk to Roman, Marlena, and John. She told Marlena and John she hated them many times.
While I agree that kids these days have no respect, I think what Will is doing, after all that he’s been through is understandable. At least he isn’t kidnapping babies, or switching DNA tests or any of the other things bratty Sami did…
Unfortunately, this is the way a lot of kids strike out and act out. If things don’t go their way, they lash out at the person responsible by saying that they hate them. Juvenile, yes. But they ARE kids and haven’t matured enough to handle things any differently.
has probably thought that he or she hated a parent at one time or another. I am sure I did; I just never dared to voice that thought within my parents hearing. Teenagers emotions seem to just bounce all over the place at times. I like Will and like that he was strong enough to tell Sami the truth about herself; I just wish he has stopped short of the "H" word even if he was thinking it.
