She sounds like Casey Anthony! In sound and in phrases. All you worry about is Gabriel, not me.
You made me kill my baby.
You talk to girls.
You can go find another girl and make another baby.
You made my life miserable.
Your fault, your fault, your fault...
She couldn't get an apartment because of Gabriel. She tells him he was taking Gabriel from her. Then she says Logan made her kill the baby. She's selfish, she puts blame on Gabriel instead of straightening out her life, it's all about what happens to her. Gabriel wasn't the center of her world, SHE is. Selfish, jealous, frustrated with herself. Not a good combination for a small child who can't defend himself.
:shakehead:
BBM And with those character traits, I don't think for a minute she would allow herself to stay in prison so that Gabriel could "have a better life". The mother/martyr might exist, but NOT in Elizibeth Johnson. Gabriel was only a tool and means to an end EVER for her. I believe EJ does not have the capacity to care for ANYONE but herself.
I also believe that she used Tammi Peters Smith, calling her to take Gabriel as a method of punishing Logan, then immediately calling the police to report that Logan had kidnapped Gabriel. Do any of us think that is the action of a mother trying to make a better life for her child?
I believe she soaked up the attention from the Smiths the way pathological narcissists indiscriminately seek ego-stroking anywhere they can get it. She used them to make her getaway. In the end, when Tammi kept exerting control, EJ wasn't ABOUT to be controlled by ANYBODY. She used them all, thumbed her nose at them publicly on MySpace, murdered the kid that kept stealing all the attention away from HER and was a nuisance to boot, and took a hike on the bus to Miami to start a new life she thought would be glamorous and fun.
My biggest questions:
1) The drive towards Victoria, was it to throw "the diaper bag" in a distant dumpster?
2) Would Gabriel still be alive today and in the loving care of his father and extended loving family, with Elizabeth getting the true medical/psychiatric help she so much needed IF Tammi Peters Smith had never coached Elizabeth in how to illegally steal a child from his rightful home?
3) Was the meeting of TPS and EJ the PERFECT STORM of deadly mental illness?
4) Can psycho-babbling scripture maintain the brick wall of denial until death do them part?
5) What can be done to help and support the Logans of the world, and their families, that find themselves facing the shocking and traumatic truth about the dangers of mental illness in mothers of young children?
All my opinion only.
