Hi everyone, I'm Ally, another newbie on here. I just dicovered this forum and it is fantastic! I don't think you guys miss one spoiler!

I honestly don't think Amy has PPD. To really understand what is going on with her I think we have to look at everything that has happened in her perspective. You know how a person's ship effects how they interpret scenes (ex. A benamy shipper may think Ben is being protective in a scene, but a ramy ship may see him as possesive)? Well I think the same thing happens with charactors. Ricky is much more likeable than Amy and therefore it is much easier to see his side of things, but I think if we look deeper Amy won't seem so crazy.

If you look at Amys history with Ricky it hasn't been too wonderful. She knew him first as the jerk who seduced her at band camp, and then as the guy who got her pregnant and took zero responsibility. It was probably a huge change for her to try and see him as a fantastic father. However, based on the premiere she was working on it. Amy even complimented Ricky's parenting skills in front of Ben ("You're so good with him").

I think though, her trust issues with Ricky are still not completely gone, and I don't even think she even relizes it. I beleive part of her deep inside is still hurt when it comes to band camp and how Ricky acted towards her after that. Especially now that she sees the consequences of that night (John) everyday now.

Just when she was starting to let herself trust Ricky he made the mistake of allowing Ben, someone they both agreed couldn't babysit, to come over and take care of John, so he could go hang out with Adrian. I beleive that that brought back all of Amy's trust issues, and I think her horrible attitude is her mind unconsciously getting back at Ricky for everything that has happened from band camp to giving birth.

Amy is angry, Amy is tired, but most of all Amy is scared. She is scared that any second now Ricky will switch back to the irresponsible guy who took her virginity and broke her heart ten months ago. She was beggining to get over that until he opted out of his own babysitting oppurtunity. Now I think Amy is trying to distance her self from him in case he changes and she has to take care of John on her own.

I'm not saying that how Amy has acted towards Ricky is right because it is not. In fact, she is being totally disrespectful, but I do think that there is a reason behind it.

Oh yeah I'm a Ricky/Amy shipper, and I feel like Ben/Adrian or Ben/Grace could be interesting if they gave them more scenes. Ships like Ben/Amy, Ricky/Adrian, and Grace/Jack make me bored because the characters are so similar.
