I hope that whoever the father is, Chloe has the love and support of as many positive influences as possible. Can you imaging Chloe in Susan's position 30 years later? I hope that the DNA test is done, and they know for sure. I hope Chloe knows her biological father, but the father who raises her can be a new love in Josie's life.

I think it's funny that people think the baby looks like Jerkathon... I don't. I agree with Rain, that baby's skin is WAY darker than either Jonathan's or Josie... we'll see in September!!!!

I agree with you so much, not for nothing but who cares anyway. I can understand how Josie should know for the baby's sake, but for God's sake who really cares. Certianly not (as you call him)Jerkathon didn't when he kicked her out of his place when it was cold and she had to live out of her car. He cares so much, why didn't he care half as much when he kicked out his baby's mom!
I do agree that the baby does look a little dark for two parents that are so light, but I guess we will see come September, maybe, if he has the courage to get the test done.
Anyway, poor Josie is going to have a lot of growing up to do within the next year, lets just see how she does. Hopefully she will do just fine and get herself a job and become an independent woman for a change.
Good luck Josie.

I agree, and if you think about it, Jerkathon, has nothing to gain to have that test done. Maybe he's stalling because he's afraid that she might take him to court for some money to support his baby. Then he will have to grow up and get a J.O.B.!

Ok I just wanted to say this really quickly about the color of Chloe. My kids are mixed and I am mixed. I am one of 14 adopted kids of all different races. If chloe is a mixed baby her skin color won't reflect that until she is at least 6 months old. You would never know looking at my kids they are mixed. I think some people put too much on what color a child is and not the child and that childs potential in life. Please don't take this personal at all I am just tired of people being concerned with race when it isn't important.

Dear Mom,
It makes no difference what so ever, I do agree with that. I happen to know from experience (My grandchildren are mixed) and yes you can tell at birth. All five of them you could tell and I could care less what color they were. I believe that all any of us were doing was to comment on what was said by Rain.
I believe that what I was saying was that Josie was so determined that it was Jackathon that she could not see the difference, that was all. I believe that Josie will make a great mom once she pulls her act together, and of course Jackathon is out of her life. I have faith in her.
Good luck Josie
