Mothers who stay after there child born


it seem when ever a charterer get pregnant you can expect there exit with in the next year only few mums who stay for while only ones i can think of that stay over a year are top of my head

Libby
Lyin
Steph (who left not long after birth of second child)
Sonya

also clearly not a mum but Declan stayed around as single dad and i really enjoyed it (till the recast) but think dads who stayed aroubd with the kid even rarer

Good point!! Is it because the actress is usually pregnant too, so goes on mat. leave? Or is it just a convenient way to write characters out in a positive way?

🐨Have you ever?...Ever felt like this?🐷

reply

pretty sure it just a way to write out the characters

been nice see a character grow up on screen from baby to high school (with little aging up) i know of two characters this has happen to on home and away. Who knows maybe Nelle

Lucy has kinda grown up on Ramsay Street. With a few long time away stints, recasts, and SORASing.

I hope Nell grows up until at least 10, on the show.

Jimmy from 10-16ish would be cool too. Plus I love Amy.

Lou raised Lolly for years until they had that ridiculous storyline where he wasn't her father after all.

I think for the most part the actresses want to leave, or the writers just find it limiting for characters when it comes to stories when they've got kids so axe them, eg. Vanessa.

I'm writing this signature in bold so people know it's a signature

reply

yeah why they wrote out Lolly when Lou was going be around for many years to come i don't know. Children very easy to recast she could been first child we actully got to see grow up
