General Hospital‘s Valentin needed to draw a line with Charlotte after her dangerous stunt, but keeping her from Danny may have been the wrong move.
Key Takeaways
- Charlotte’s latest scheme crossed a line.
- Valentin punished her by forbidding her to see Danny.
- Danny is a better influence than Valentin realizes.
- Valentin may regret his decision.
Valentin Is Trying To Parent
Lulu (Alexa Havins) has been accusing Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) of letting their daughter run wild. Charlotte (Bluesy Burke) proved her mom’s point with her latest move. She snuck into Drew’s (Cameron Mathison) car, intending to catch him in what appeared to be a compromising position. Thankfully, she was stopped before it happened.
Valentin was justifiably angry when he heard what his daughter had done. This time, he was not going to let her get away with her dangerous behavior. He took away her phone and then handed down the worst punishment; she is no longer allowed to see Danny (Asher Antonyzyn). This isn’t the best idea.
Danny Is Trying To Do Better
Danny and Charlotte often feed off each other, and their scheming has historically been irresponsible. This time, the plan was all Charlotte’s. Danny knew it was a bad idea, and he even called Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarski) and Rocco (Finn Carr) to stop her, which, thankfully, they did. He is finally recognizing when she’s crossing a line and is willing to act rather than simply go along with her.
Danny is also growing from his bad choices. His conversations with Cody (Josh Kelly), Tracy (Jane Elliot), and Jason (Steve Burton) helped him to see the need to think before he reacts. Danny may be a better influence on Charlotte than Valentin realizes.
Banning his daughter from her best friend will make her angry with Valentin. As we have seen, Charlotte acts out when she is restricted. Taking Danny out of Charlotte’s life may do more harm than good.
Do you think Valentin doled out the right punishment for Charlotte?
