The Mother & Child Reunion

August 10, 2009 2:40 PM By Joe Reid

Chrishell Stause, "All My Children" On "All My Children," daytime's weirdest baby-swapping scheme to date (and that is certainly saying something) is about to get even weirder. Weirder than Jake and Amanda pretending her baby was dead so David Hayward wouldn't have anything to do with the little tyke, then pretending to give the baby to Liza but not really because Jake figured Amanda would eventually want to be reunited with her child, which she did so good thinking, Jake, except now they have to figure how Amanda can just show up around town with a baby again? Weirder than that? Actually, yes. Because someone's about to take Amanda's baby. Someone we know.

So, first of all, that's all awesome. But second, it got us to thinking about all the mothers that have been separated from their children on daytime, mostly because they thought the kid was dead when it was actually across town living with their best friend/relative/enemy. And really, this is more frequent than sneezing in some of these quaint little hamlets. But that's why we love 'em.

To celebrate this latest wrinkle in Amanda's quest to be with her baby, take a look back at some great mother and child reunions of the past.

I am so tired of Kendal's wining that "she killed Stewart, over and over and over....Everyone knows Adam killed his own brother while he was out of his mind with the pills David gave him. Annie took him into the attic to save him for herself and his money and a way to make him beholden to her and she would get her daughter back, but she is a true Wac Job... and should never have that little girl......

It wouldn't surprise me if the napper was Krystal. It seams that she has been keeping a very close eye on Tad, Amanda, and Jake. Maybe she thinks this child is David's. But we all know better sort of speak.

wow they really need to come up with better story lines for this soap! i used to be a faithful viewer but now, i check in once in awhile, frankly, im not impressed at all, all the darn bed hopping that's been going on. for example, who in their right mind would pair Ryan with Erica? i know their union isn't official but it sure looks that way! and Krystal? why did she hop from tad to Adam, to tad, to David?? seriously?? and what is the deal with Marissa?? i don't get her role in all of this! and can Annie confess to all her bad deeds already?? im getting sooo tired of her! every time Ive tuned in its the same drama with the same characters! get creative already!!
