Yet, everyone seemed to have sympathy for Alexis when she withheld the
information from Sonny.
Bottom line is that it was not Robin's truth to tell. She only had
the information because Jason confided in her. Maybe I am alone here,
but I think if you love someone you hold something they have told you
in the strictest confidence, such as a confidence to a spouse or a
priest.
And, as for it being hard to take a child away from its mother,
remember that we were not talking about the average couple. It was a
member of a very powerful family with unlimited resources and
connections trying to take a child away from a mother that had at the
very least a questionable past who didn't even know who the father of
her baby was without a DNA test. Don't you think that information
alone played a lot into her fears?
