We will give Days of our Lives credit for one thing: While the children on other shows are mostly invisible, Salem’s tots are not just seen and heard, but we get to see how their parents’ terrible life choices affect them — including Brady Black.
This is good and can even be entertaining. But what are we to think when tiny terror Rachel stands between her daddy reuniting with his true love? Is Brady (Eric Martsolf) right to heed Chloe’s suggestion and do what his little girl says?
Only 6% are on board with Brady giving in to Rachel’s (Finley Rose Slater) whiny whims. She’s been through a lot over the past few months. And Kristen (Stacey Haiduk) messing with her head has made Rachel’s suffering even worse. She needs to feel safe and secure in the knowledge that at least her dad won’t leave her as Kristen did. Chloe (Nadia Bjorlin) can wait. It’s her idea!
It’s only for a little while, 21% reassure. Just until Rachel gets used to the idea of Kristen being in prison, and Brady moving on. Sure, she’s upset now, and Brady should respect that. But she won’t be for long. Let’s get real: Kristen has been out of Rachel’s life for longer than she’s been in it. She’s been in prison before, and Rachel got used to it. She’ll get used to it again. And Rachel will remember that not just Brady, but Chloe has been there for her when her mother wasn’t.
Rachel’s genes already point towards her being a holy terror, 73% of you point out. There’s no reason to add nurture to that nature. Brady indulging her will turn Rachel into a spoiled brat who absolutely loses her mind when she doesn’t get her way and then goes to extreme means to force the world to bend to her will. Now, who does that sound like?
