I don't really watch Daytime Soap Operas, because they're silly and kind of a waste of time.
1. It seems that the kids grow too quickly. Let's say for an example(not real name)"Johnny" is 3 years old one day on a Soap Opera, then the following month he's 16 years old. Why is that?
2. The people really don't cry(actually show tears), which rather weird.
3. Just a LOT of things that aren't the same as other Shows. It just doesn't add up.

I love the Young and the Restless. But due to school I don't watch it a lot which sucks, but when I get the chance I watch it. It is funny how the kids seem to age and the parents stay the same.
