Btw, I wonder if Tate/Holly are going to be weaved into this somehow since Holly was the one who had the key that Maggie and Sarah were looking for. 

Me, too.

And I’m sorry, but I still can’t stand Kristen’s little demon spawn. She’s like the bad kid version of Violet Finn 😂😂

I'm with you on this as well. And you said things much better than I could have, especially your second sentence. Rachel makes Violet look like Laura Ingalls (ie, the classic TV show version).

Now, see, here I have a very different view. I cannot abide Vile-Ette from GH. Also not at all keen on Charlotte.

But, Rachel, on DAYS, I adore. She's like the model for kids that misbehave - and are entitled to!

Contessa, I guess we'll agree to disagree. When Rachel is onscreen, what I feel is annoyance and irritation. But I totally respect that you disagree with me on this, as well as your right to express your opinion. 🙂

While both children are very obnoxious I prefer Rachel to Violet.  I prefer any child, human, animal, and most inanimate objects to Violet though.  At least Rachel doesn't sing.

Not a problem, not at all. 

With Violet, I look & say: I get it. They wanted to create a precocious child that was also lovable, like Young Robin and then Young Emma & OH MY GOD, could they have possibly screwed that up any more than they actually did. And, then like CarolineG mentioned, they have her SING!!!

With Rachel I look at her & think, Kristen & Brady created THIS & she deserves every ounce of her evil self. The Bad Seed? Could be. But remember, that is a classic.

They have her sing songs she wrote herself for goodness sakes!  

Rachel is at least bratty and evil so that's interesting at least.  Violet is the most perfect child in the world.  UGH.

8-14-24 a Wednesday, on GH, my rose is Ali's words of love to Kristina, such a great love. My thorn is Kristina just being her damn selfish self. On DAYS my rose is Hattie & her saying "your bon mots and witty repartee, Lenny." My thorn is Fiona running Sarah down.

Has Kayla been working at the hospital all night?

Exhaustion is the only excuse why she wouldn't order x-rays or an MRI for Sarah's spine after being hit by a car.  BTW, I hate temporary paralysis stories, where the character magically rises from their wheelchair due to the power of love. 

Also, to me, Rachel is the good kind of brat because she's self-aware of her power.  While Violet's singing is enough to drive a man to drink.  Is it possible that Rachel started the campaign to recall Paulina as mayor?

Contessa and Caroline, thanks for elaborating. Yes, I certainly wouldn't mind if Violet didn't sing any more. But otherwise, I don't feel too strongly about her. On the other hand, Rachel presses my buttons: She has this habit (although I admit she's starting to get away from it) of saying something nasty to an adult (especially Brady) and then looking so pleased with herself that she said it. Then recently she gave a reply of "obvi" to something Brady (at least I think it was him) said. I thought that was something that would be said by someone 3 or 4 years older than she is, so I'd say that Violet hasn't totally cornered the market on precociousness. If Rachel would simply be a "Bad Seed, like you mentioned, Contessa, I might appreciate that a bit more, but the snark ruins her for me. This is basically a gut reaction for me, and not necessarily better or worse, or more or less correct, than either of your opinions or those of others who've previously been negative about Violet on this board.

It literally did.  Her own father 😂 Which I am sure was your point.

It's kind of weird because Kayla did say she ordered some tests on Sarah's spine and it came back clear, so I don't know.  Maybe Kayla can't read X-Rays.

Rachel is annoying as well.  I just think she's the type of kid Brady and Kristen deserve.

Hopefully, if they do that, it’ll lead to some good conflict for them.

Tate and Holly against the world is a little boring. They’re too young to be this perfect 😂
