Blood...

Just finished watching S1 of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.

I enjoyed the show, but why is it I can suspend disbelief for time travel, AIs, killer androids etc. but totally lose it when they say something really stupid about blood groups?

I agree that she might have tried to save her own child by swapping him for another (and that's pretty much the challenge I posted), but whoever she claims as her child has to be kept alive and believe that she is his mother or the future is doomed; if she abandons her child there is no guarantee that he or she won't die in the initial salvo. She might as well look after her own child.

Of course all this assumes that there is a child - maybe the real child died in infancy, and she stole another baby to give the future its saviour. The trouble with that is that both she and John have been through the legal system etc., and at some point they would have done basic tests to make sure he is her son, since she seems to be completely insane...
