Bonnie learns she was abandoned by her mother so her mother could keep a man . Said mother chooses man over four year old daughter. No wonder Bonnie is not accepting it wasn't over substance abuse even. That Bonnie could understand. Basically each woman in the Plunkett family from Bonnie's mother to Violet feels she is doing the best thing. The difference is Bonnie, Christy and Violet do what they feel will be best for their daughters, ( and In Christy's case her son as well) Bonnie's mother just does it for herself. A later Bonnie probably would be more accepting but she did have the right to react as she did and say it was Marjorie who had been a real mother to her.
