Scotty decides to stay with Sam and Nick. Did you see that coming? What difference do you see him making in their lives?

I expected him to decide to stay with Nick and Sam. They will be a good family. Sam and Nick both love the boy. He will add another dimension to their lives. Also, I can see his love will lessen the pain if Sam doesn't get pregnant again.

Yes, this was not unexpected.
He will provide Nick and Sam with the family they want whether or not Sam becomes pregnant.

He is already 12 years old and pretty self-sufficient so I don't see that his presence in their home will make much difference. Maybe he will make Sam realize that kids take time and energy, and a family requires time and effort. But, I doubt it. I think Scotty will make a supreme effort not to impact their lives.

Yep, saw this coming and I couldn’t be happier. I wish more prospective parents would consider adopting older children. So many need good parents. Scotty will soften Sam’s edges and make her a great mother. She’ll begin to appreciate having a family in addition to a career. Nick? He’s tailor made for this and will have the family he’s always craved.
