HappyEndings, I like your thoughts. Personally, I never really understood why it was so horrible to/for Emma that Snow wanted a second child. I know, abandonment issues, etc etc, but honestly? Emma’s about 30 years old. She’s found her family, she loves her family, but she does have some serious walls still up. It’s not intentional, but she can make it very difficult for her parents to love her as parents (which, of course, makes sense). Snow, too, is about 30. She didn’t get to raise her first child. It seems natural to me that she would want a second child while she still can. I also felt that Snow isn’t the type of person to replace someone (this case, Emma) with someone else (new baby). I think Snow, though aware Emma may be uncomfortable with this desire, would feel that a baby could be the one thing that brings them all together. Snow is absolutely the kind of person that would want to share the experience of raising a child with Emma, not exclude Emma from the experience. And it gives Emma the ability to have some small idea of what it might have been like to raise Henry. So I thought the idea of Snowing having a second child presents a lot more positive for everyone than negative. Quote
