At some point even the parents need to grow up

Here is a quick recap of this week's Parenthood.

- The paternity test comes back and it proves Crosby is Jabbar's father. Throughout this all Crosby has been leaning on Julia and now she is pushing his to stand on his own and grow up. To prove he is trying, he gets up the courage to tell his parents that he is a father. It was a moving scene, contrasted by Zeek's limited disgust at Jabbar's name, that only became more satisfying when the grandparents met their grandson and he was so flawlessly welcomed into the family.
- Max is now working with a behavioral specialist who is not only helping him in ways his parents have not yet figured out, but she is helping Kristina by being someone she can lean on.
- Julia realizes she has every right to be jealous of Racquel and questions Joel, who admits that she once kissed him. Julia then decides she doesn't want Racquel in their lives. But when she realizes this would do more harm to Sydney than anyone else, she realizes she trusts her husband.
- Things with Sarah and Amber's teacher continue to progress. While Sarah is not immediately willing to just follow her feelings because it is too complicated, by the end of the episode the two share a kiss and agree that they like one another.
