I definately think Amy needs to give Ricky a chance. I've liked him from the get go despite his *need* for sex and seducing women but it's been clear as to why he does it. It's his masculine way of justifying what his father did to him.
When Ricky is around Amy he acts differently than he does with any other girl he's trying to entice. He acts mature. As for his therapist telling Ricky that he needed to do something about the situation; the way I see it is that he didn't tell him persey.
Ricky is a smart guy- he knows that he makes mistakes over and over and in the case of him and Amy he knows that this is mistake that he actually can control in a sense. I mean no he can't take back what happened but he can do something about it: he can choose to be apart of Amy's life and hopefully be the kind of parent that his own weren't. He can right the wrongs that have been laid upon him through his son or daughter and I think he really wants to.
Ricky's a sincere guy when he wants to be and when he really puts in the effort. So far he has only put the effort with Amy. He hasn't done so with Grace or Adrian or anyone else.
I guess I just see some possibility of good in Ricky and I would really like to think he not only wants to be there for his child but for Amy as well. Now it's just a matter of if or not Amy will give him that chance.
