Background
Writing
When the writers of All My Children had characters Greg and Jenny meet in 1981, after having Jenny move to the fictional town of Pine Valley with her mother, Opal Gardner (then portrayed by Dorothy Lyman), they applied four obstacles to the couple's love story:
Age (Jenny is younger than Greg. In 1981, Greg is a senior in high school while Jenny is only fifteen)
Economic backgrounds (they come from different economic backgrounds; Jenny is working-class while Greg comes from a rich family in Pine Valley)
Ex-girlfriend (Greg's ex-girlfriend, Liza Colby, refuses to allow Greg and Jenny to be happy together and schemes to displace Jenny at all costs)
Parents (Greg's mother, Enid Nelson, is a snob who thinks that Jenny is not good enough for her son)
