The Young and The Restless Chat: Neil and Devon vs. Lily’s Wishes

Oh I am so sad for Lily. Out of all the characters on The Young and The Restless, I think her goody two shoe demeanor is certainly one of the more tolerable. What I mean by this is that the writers do a good job of making sure she remains sweet and innocent. The problem with that is they can sometimes over do it, she does make for a good modern day Cricket. However, she still stays on my top list of characters that I never want to have to go through anything terrible. Hmmm, she has been put through the ringers lately and now Cancer.

What I do not care for in this storyline is Devon and Neil’s position about Cane. The reason I say this is because at some point they have to let Lily grow up and start making decisions for herself. I think Tyra did a good job of trying to express to Neil he needed to let her make her own choices. Yet he just looked at her like, you are no where near as precious as my Lily so back off. Then again Olivia tried to talk to Neil and he looked at her as if he knew what was best for her. I find it interesting that he is being so “Protective” of Lily that he has forgotten how love made him so forgiving when He found out that Lily was actually his brother’s daughter and not his. At the end of the day nothing could keep him and Dru apart because his love allowed him to look over a lot of her flaws and vice versa, yet now he can’t see that.  Perhaps Dru should come back and remind him!

The other part that bugs me about it is the fact that Lily is potentially on her death bed, while they are remaining optimistic it would seem to me that if she wanted to dance with fire at this point, allow her to do it. Why would they want to keep her from someone whom she could draw strength from in such a difficult time. Seems to me that Neil and Devon need to put their personal feelings aside for while and focus on what will help Lily feel strong and confident and loved.

They should walk with some caution, sometimes matters of the heart can not be understood by simple on lookers. Lily is scared and needs the security of Cane, they should just move out of the way and let her be. She’s going to reach out to him, they can’t stop it. So they might as well get on baord.

However this is not Lily’s only family, will Nate come back and check on his cousin? I would love to see who they have cast for his role and how old he would be. What about Malcolm? Any one see a cameo appearances from Shemar? I know ther are a lot of us who would not mind seeing him on the set again?

More to come shortly! As usual, I put enough in and left enough out for each of you to add your own ingredients. So get in the Mix!
