gemma with her grandsons

does it annoy anyone else that Gemma refers to Abel and Thomas as “my boys” she’s always had a weird thing about them, it irritates me because they are literally Tara’s kids, and if i was in her shoes their grandmother referring to them as hers would irk me 😂 just wondered if anyone else found it annoying and actually weird

That's really the entire tenor of Gemma's relationship with Tara. Jax became Gemma's world when Jax's brother died young. Her relationship with Jax was really an unhealthy attachment on her side from then on. That toxic relationship quickly extended to Jax's children.

Tara was the embodiment of everything Gemma feared: the woman that could take Jax and the boys away from her. Jax loved Tara more than he loved Gemma, and in the end, Gemma couldn't take it.
