Domestic Abuse is a crime! The Young and The Restless is sending the wrong message to millions of females that abuse is not ok. The character Joe Clark has been written as an cheater, manipulator and abuser. Y&R is constantly trying to promote the character Joe Clark by saying how handsome he is. Good looks can not cover up what the character has done. Joe Clark can not be redeemed by destroying other characters. The character Joe Clark was written to abuse his wife by Chuck Pratt now they want the character redeemed . Fans have not forgotten what was written. No female character on Y&R should be paired with Joe Clark. He is no knight and shining amour. Remove Joe Clark from Y&R. This is not a character that should be promoted. Chuck Pratt, Angelica McDaniel and Jill Farren Phelps are sending the wrong message to millions of females on a daily basis. Fans please think of your daughters, granddaughters and nieces. Think of the many women that have suffered from domestic abuse. A (so called) good looking face doesn't get an free ride when it comes to abuse.
