Jagger was written to be a cartoonish villain that everyone hated. So no, no one cared about his son when he died. Better writing could have made us care.

And yet Jagger Cates' special needs kid has lost both of his parents and nobody gives a crap about him.

Same warped morality that has been in the show's DNA since Luke was made a hero after raping Laura.

I don’t even understood why the writers initially brought up the subject of Jagger’s son. Maybe at the start they were thinking of pairing him up with Carly, but when she had better chemistry with Brennan, they scrapped that idea and made Jagger a cartoon villain? Because by the time Jagger was killed off, most viewers were relieved he was gone and weren’t thinking about his son.

They'll still be writing for Anna's skeleton in 20 years having her on every single day fighting back tears arguing with Valentin, Jason, Sonny, Robert. 🤬

I'm curious, was this an actual quote from Anna? Cause it's phrased awkwardly. It implies there are kids who DO deserve to lose both their parents, it's just Sonny's kids aren't one of them.

I'd rather characters just shrug and say "It is what it is" with the allowances they give Sonny, cause when they try to give actual reasons it comes off like gaslighting the audience and typically sounds stupid anyway.

It was an actual quote from Anna.
