I can understand why he told he parents about the Navance situation, under the circumstances. And he probably feels that he already told Sam anyway. But he really should have said, "I'll have to ask Lois first." She specifically said she didn't want people to know.
But then, he doesn't feel a lot of real loyality to Lois right now, even though he does feel protective. But still...And that to Clark's list of sins.
I'm glad the birth turns out okay. It would be nice if Clark felt an attachment to the baby after he was born, but in all honesty, I don't think it would be very realistic.
And even thouugh I'm mad at him for still looking foward to when he can divorce Lois, I will stay it again. I DON'T WANT CLARK TO STAY MARRIED TO LOIS JUST BECAUSE OF THE BABY at the end of the five years. (Or even think he has to right now.)
I want him to stay because he loves Lois. And if that's only because of the baby, it doesn't make sense, even if the baby really IS HIS. (Still hoping it's not, but I'll read anyway.)
There are plenty of couples who love their children but not each other, so while it may be PART of falling in love, it can't be the reason. Second, like I've said before, Clark could easily try to force himself to love Lois under these circusmstances.
I know I'm sounding like a broken record every time I say that. I also know no one else sees things the way I do. I understand that, and your intitled to different viewpoints.
But you can force yourself to fall in love with someone if your not careful. In popular culture it's sometimes called "falling in love with falling in love." My mother tells me she did that with my father. But there are other reasons why people do that besides falling love with falling in love. Guilt, desire to be good to a child, etc. are all good reasons why this happens.
I had to be very careful that this didn't happen to me, so I know what I'm talking about.
