To those who are snarking on Jonah:We can assume that all the times we DON’T see Shannon being taken care of by Toni and Brad that she is with her father, which is most of the time. We’ve not seen that Jonah is an otherwise irresponsible parent; Shannon is always clean and fed when she is dropped off and doesn’t seem more ill-behaved than many children her age I’ve seen.Besides, even some “responsible” parents sometimes need help with making sure the child is safe and taken care of while the primary parent works to pay the bills or has those pesky “adult” errands that we all have to make, and sometimes a relative is best for that.BTW: It’s Toni who’s shoving the child off on her boyfriend’s sister, and only because she can’t do it to the boyfriend. (Who took care of Shannon while Toni was with Dirk ?)
