Johnny is a very cool kid. As played by the current actor he goes with the flow! He is not a big drama queen, will likely smile, shake his head in agreement to the manipulation of Victoria & Billy and then want to run around the house and play tag with his sister, Katherine Chancellor Abbott. (Oh, brother. I don’t get the name connection) Johnny is not a rocket scientist or leader. He is agreeably waiting to be lead to his new family. Johnny, a soap kid i actually like! He really has that Billy Miller killer charm in him… Read more »

UPDATE: Johnny, of course, has been RECAST and looks something like the real one.

Everyone is so worried about the adult’s feelings and preferences. Johnny matters! Victoria is his mother, but he also has a biological connection to Chelsea. A therapist should be consulted to discuss if it is developmentally appropriate to let him know that now. Lies are never a good thing. In addition, Connor is a half brother to both Johnny AND Christian. These children are missing out on knowing their bio parents and half brothers. It’s all about selfishness on the adult’s part as both Chelsea and Adam have been portrayed as very good parents. Victoria and Nick just don’t want… Read more »

Great points re: Johnny’s welfare. But unless he gets Soras, I’ve decided (lol) that Johnny is too young for ‘bio mother’ drama. (Ok, I’ll hear Sharon out.) At the minute, I have little empathy for Chelsea’s being ‘ready now’ for a relationship w/Johnny. Sorry, Chels, HE was ‘ready’ at birth and didn’t have the luxury nor means to wait until you were. Will you barrel into his life now only to bounce back out should you need to ‘get your s*** together’ again?

Sure? But not simply because Chelsea wants it. If B+V agree to it- then great. If not, then no-go. Chelsea has no parental rights (or at least I hope not). Chelsea didn’t just ask V. to ”help out’ until Chelsea was ‘ready’ to parent: she gave Johnny (or whatever she called him) up. Idr if it was official -maybe they didn’t sign papers or some such loophole? I suspect Billy will start to play both sides, and maybe even come to fully ‘support’ Chelsea. (Uh -heads up, Lily!) I’m excited for some soapy,heart-wrenching drama from this story. I doubt I’ll… Read more »

I voted yes. I have been hoping Y&R would bring up this fact about Chelsea being Johnny’s biological for years and now it is finally here! Y&R had started to go this route with this story line a while ago and then we didn’t hear about it again. I am so glad they have decided to bring to story line to light. It is very realistic that Chelsea would be interested in getting to know her biological son when they live in the same town. Chelsea also made a good point about Johnny being half brothers with Connor. That is… Read more »

This storyline has a treasure trove of possibilities, I voted yes, let’s get started! For one thing, Johnny isn’t Victor’s biological grandson so Victor could gradually start favoring Connor. But Victoria is preferred over Adam so Connor could be always second best because Victoria is “raising” Johnny. If Johnny is a bright kid we can only imagine how savvy he will be with Chelsea’s influence. If the writers age Dom to be early teen when these boys are late teens – It would be great to have the cousins all building relationships, although I’m getting confused just trying to get… Read more »

I voted yes . I think Chelsea should have supervised contact with Johnny, but should be up to Billy and Victoria if Johnny should be told Chelsea is his bio mom
