Ryan Howard Barksdale Silverman: Difference between revisions

When Wild first introduced Joel Silverman in "[[The Tie That Chokes]]," she had no plans for Amy and Joel to have a child or marry. However, as they grew closer, Wild felt that giving Amy a son would reflect her changing relationship and to give her life a new challenge. She also felt that while Amy was a good aunt to her nieces, she would be more comfortable parenting a boy, who would not receive the emotional baggage Amy carried from her relationship with [[Rita Barksdale|Helen]] and [[Rita Barksdale|Rita]].
