Raising Bree and Chloe: Natalie vs. Jessica


It looks as if an all out war could erupt at any moment between Natalie (Melissa Archer) and Jessica (Bree Williamson) over who should care for Jessica's daughters. Honestly, as much as I love Tess I'm sort of leaning towards Natalie for at least six months.

Who do you want to care for Jessica's children?

Natalie does NOT have the right to demand that Jess stay away from her own daughters. YOU ARE NOT THEIR MOTHER. I wanted to slap the crap out of her today. How dare she they are not your daughters. After the crap you put Jess threw and the family threw how dare you act like you are miss perfect. i cant stand GNAT!!!!!!!!!

AND THAT PATHETIC EXCUSE SHE GAVE ON HWY SHE DOES NOT WANT TO MOVE OUT. YOU DONT WANT TO MOVE OUT CAUSE YOU HAVE NO JOB!

I think Natalie's "concern" is more about spite than actual concern. She was all supportive and lovey dovey with her sister until Jessica admitted that a part of her wanted Tess to kill her and Jared.

I think Nat was right that Jess isn't in shape to care for the kids. She was needlessly harsh about it and given the dynamic between the 2 sisters I don't think Natalie should be stepping in. Maybe Viki is up to it or one of Jess' brothers should come home to help out.

I have to see more before I take a side. I think with Nat, yeah she is sick of getting the short stick with her parents, but I think she figured she would be turning the girls over to an integrated Jess and that Jess was inherently a good person. That she now sees Jess as someone who is willing and able to resort to murder obviously calls into question whether she is okay enough to be a stable presence for the girls.

Ultimately there will be anger, but what interests me more is what happens with Hope when its discovered that she isnt chloe. Will Nat want Starr to let her adopt as the only mother the girl has known. Will Starr still want to go through with the adoption. Where does Marcie fit into that equation. *************************************************

I wouldn't give Natalie my cat to babysit on the weekends! I'm so tired of her and Jared walking around like they've been wronged after all the crap they've pulled!

Thank you Luke for coming up w/this post b/c I have some stuff to say.
Who in the bloody hell does Natalie thinks she is?
Sure the girl was basically those girls momma for that time Jess/Tess/Bess/rumored boy alter was doing all that stuff, but all of this could've been prevented if she and her "David Vickers lite" beau didn't kill the love of 555-5555/Bree's daddy. And yes this is a soap and kudos to Melissa Archer for finally acting and bringing all of this emotions out of me, but that is how I feel. One of those girls are Jess so she has no say and should be licking her sisters feet.

TEAM JESSICA BABY!!!!!!!!!!!

Natalie keeps dwelling on what Tess did. Tess, not Jessica tried to kill them. Maybe she needs to be reminded that her and Jared's lies started this whole mess. Tess would have never come out and held them hostage and the real Chloe probably wouldn't have died.

It's been a while since I have watched OLTL but isn't the youngest gal Starr's baby. I thought I remembered reading about a baby switch.

I am more than sick of Natalie. Her lies and Jared's hands killed Jessica's husband. Now she wants to rip Jessie's children from her.

What a nasty witch. Reminds me of a vile baby thief on DOOL.

It is Starr's baby but the only person who knows it is Bess and maybe Tess. No one outside of Jessica's head knows that it is Star's baby.

I just think the post hope reveal will be the meat of the story. Where will the baby end up then? I really wonder what the end game will be.

from my viewpoint, natalie has taken jess' dad, killed her husband, which cost jess her baby, and natalie seems to be getting the happily ever after. natalie can drop off a cliff and leave jess' girl(Drunk alone!

The question by itself cracks me up. Who should raise JESSICA S child? UM JESSICA!! Even if Jess isnt capable right now why the hell is Nat the next choice. Um hell no its Viki. If you want children so bad then screw your killer boyfriend and pop one out!

If Vicki is next in line, then when the baby is up all night, she should be the one to get up and change the dirty diaper.

I agree, she should be next, but it doesnt seem like vicki wants to do the work.

Either way its not Gnats right to chose who the baby ends up with cause its not hers. Its jesssica's children! You dont demand that at all!

I didnt say that, however Natalie should be concerned about the well being of her nieces.

I like both characters, they will eventually work it out. They both made mistakes.

JESSICA!! Haven't watched for a month ago but NAT needs to get her grubby hands off of her sister's kids! I hope Starr finds out and Blair helps her raise the baby.

EET, I understand where you're coming from and I agree. I just feel that Natalie is more angry at her sister for wanting her dead than she is concerned for her niece(Drunk. That's not to say that she's not worried for them. I also think that she should be more understanding of her sisters feelings. When someone you love dies and some is directly or indirectly, however anyone wants to see it, responsible you'd probably wish that person dead whether they be a relative or not. I feel that Natalie is making this more about her. Not to say that your sister wanting you dead shouldn't hurt. LOL!

It doesn't matter who is best to raise Chloe, because it's Starr's baby. But, Bree belongs with her mother. Natalie is such a self-righteous twit.

"Natalie keeps dwelling on what Tess did. Tess, not Jessica tried to kill them...."

***

I think she's dwelling on it b/c Jess said that she wanted Tess to take control and kill Natalie and Jared. To me that's akin to hiring a hitman.
It's dangerous criminal activity.
I'm not sure why Nat's hurt, anger and fear is being presented as 'I want your kids as my own'.

This show is generally so well written and tightly intertwined that I don't always notice how plot driven it is.

I said Natalie. As Vicki stated last week, when Nat gets mad, she lets it out, unlike Jess, who lets her alters take over. Jess delibertely let Tess out to do her 'dirty' work, in getting rid of Nat and Jared. Nat made a comment that everyone always forgives Jess when she makes mistakes because it is one of her alters. Once Jess bond's with Chloe, then the truth will come out and we'll see a custody battle between, Cole, Starr, Marcie, etc...good drama, no one was shot in the head. Now that Nat knows Jess was trying to kill her, it will change the sister dynamic's and more than likely, they will be at odds for some time to come... I expect the alters will come out once Jess realizes Chloe is not her child...

Of course, Jess will start bonding with Bree again, but, I wouldn't leave her alone with either child, since she does not have all of her alters memories.

Jessica should be raising her kids. Of course she needs some help right now but Natalie can take her self-righteousness and shove it up her butt! She and Jared are responsible for the events leading up to Nash's death - they are why he died. Natlaie is not the frakking saint/vicitim she thinks she is. I was so hoping Jessica would slap her instead of just apologizing over and over. At the very least she should have brought up Nash. Natalie needs to get over herself.

Just keep those kids away from the brain dead idiot with the big knockers. Oh wait, that describes both of them.

Right now Vicki should be rasing Bree & Chloe, until it comes out that Chloe is really Hope . Natilie has no claim to them and Vicki whould be the next of kin to raise the kids. I can understand that Natilie might fear for the kids because of how Jessica is still unstable, but it doesn't give her the right to tell Jessica that she is not allowed to see her own kids. I say it's more spite over what Jess let Tess do, than letting Jess near her girls.

Honestly, Viki needs to step in and care for the children. She and Clint should have been doing that all along, but instead Viki went to Africa and Clint ran around trying to get BE back. The two of them need to realize that Jessica, Natalie and Jared are the most immature 'adults' in Llanview and intervene.
