  • January 7, 2013

The Steve Wilkos Show is a talk show that focuses on conflict resolution and airing personal problems in a public forum. In season 6 episode 58, titled "I'm Raising Him But is He Mine," the show features a family dynamic that is in chaos due to paternity questions.

The episode begins with a woman named Crystal who is having doubts about the paternity of her son, Dillon. She explains that she had her son at a young age and was not sure who the father was, but she eventually found out the likely candidate was her ex-boyfriend, Jake. Crystal has since moved on and has been raising Dillon with her current partner, John, who she says has been an excellent father figure to Dillon and her two other children. However, the family has been dealing with accusations of Dillon not being John's biological son, which has put a strain on their relationship.

Crystal, John, and Jake are all present on the show, along with Dillon, to try and sort out the paternity drama. Steve Wilkos starts the episode by allowing Crystal to explain her side of the story and how she came to the realization that Jake might be Dillon's father instead of John. Crystal explains that she had doubts because Dillon did not look like John or their other children, and that they had a DNA test done a few years ago that was inconclusive.

The show then brings Jake onto the stage, who denies being Dillon's father but agrees to take a DNA test to confirm if he is the biological father. Jake says that he has been in and out of Dillon's life over the years and has tried to build a relationship with him but has been met with resistance from Crystal and John. Jake also alleges that John has been abusive towards Crystal and their children, which leads to a heated argument between John and Jake on the show.

The tension in the room is palpable, as Steve Wilkos attempts to mediate the fight between John and Jake while also trying to stay focused on the paternity question at hand. The show then brings out the results of the DNA test, which confirms whether or not Jake is Dillon's father.

Throughout the episode, there are emotional moments as Crystal expresses her desire to have her family back together and for Dillon to have a relationship with all of his potential fathers. John also expresses his frustration and anger over the accusations and the harm it has caused his relationship with Crystal and Dillon.

The Steve Wilkos Show provides a platform for people like Crystal, John, and Jake to confront their personal turmoil in a public setting. In this episode, the show acts as a mediator and helps the family come to a resolution, whether it be confirming Jake as Dillon's biological father or figuring out a way to move forward with the current family unit. Ultimately, the episode leaves the audience with a sense of closure and highlights the importance of communication and finding common ground in the midst of upheaval.
