Y&R created flashback scenes in recent years that used younger actors to portray Abbott’s in the years prior to when the show debuted. Through those wonderful episodes viewers learned that Jack had an emotionally turbulent childhood, as his mother, the then Dina Abbott (Marla Adams), left his father, John Abbott (Jerry Douglas), to pursue a life of her own.
Jack helped to care for his younger sisters, Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) and Traci Abbott (Beth Maitland), which played a significant role in influencing the fierce family stances he would often take through adulthood.
