Yep. And she was very quickly placed on a pedestal as being "the most loving mother evah" and I very quickly felt it was not going to be accepted for anyone to say anything negative about D, so I didn't.
Do I think she's involved in Kyron's disappearance? No, I don't.
Do I find it very interesting how quiet Tony is with regards to all things Kyron at this point in time? Yep. Knowing that Tony is a murder detective & knowing his personality (which is WAY more outgoing than Desiree's), I think it is telling that he's keeping quiet.
Do I think that Desiree wants to make sure people think she is a wonderful mother? Yep, I do. Does it matter what the truth was? Apparently not.
Do I think D is just as narcissistic and selfish as Terri? Yep, I do.
Part of the reason I don't think D had any problem letting someone else raise her boys (remember, she didn't have custody of either of her children ~ that really ought to make a person think, imo) is because she never appeared to like children. When my family moved next door, I had 6 kids. Then I got pregnant with #7. She NEVER acknowledged my children ~ never said hi to them, never showed any interest in them, and if they were outside while my husband and/or I were chatting with Tony, Desiree would beckon Tony to come inside rather than join in the conversation. She never asked about my pregnancy, which I realize is not a sin, but all the other neighbors asked when I was due, what I was having (boy/girl), etc. You know the usual idle chitchat that goes on between neighbors. The ONLY time Desiree interacted with any of my children was when she expected my oldest to babysit Kyron & her older son for the summer break when the boys would be visiting. And she didn't even ask my daughter to babysit... she had Tony ask my daughter & after my kid said she'd talk to her parents about it before committing to the job, Desiree showed up at our door that night with a list of what she expected my daughter to do. She was livid when my daughter took one look at the list and said, "No thanks, I don't want the job." It was like she couldn't believe anyone would tell her no. Also, as my oldest son just added, "Her own sons were more interested in hanging out with Tony than her."
Anyway.... I don't think she liked kids. I don't doubt she loves her boys, but it wasn't like she was always taking trips up to Portland to see either of them. Her priority was not Kyron. Her priority, as far as I could ever see, was herself. And that is why I have not been able to buy into the "poor Desiree not being able to take care of her little boy," angle. She was perfectly fine letting Kaine (who she did not have a good relationship with) & Terri raise her son. If she truly thought Terri was evil incarnate, then what does it say about her that she was willing to leave Kyron in her care?
