My take on Rick & Lori is, in the beginning he was so happy to find her & Carl, he didn't care a bout anything else. Now he's had time to digest it, see's the baby growing, know's it might be Shane's and has to live with the fact that he killed his friend for her. Never mind their marriage was shaky to begin with, that stuff will do a # on your marriage.
As for Carl, kids that age pick up on vibes from their parents, and a boy at that age is going to lean towards his father. If dad is mad at mom, son will be too. Especially if he found out why Rick & Shane had a falling out and why Shane wound up dead. Young boys do NOT like to find out their mom's have been "around".
Also, I think Rick is just upset that Lori turned away from him when he really needed her. He was very torn up about killing Shane, and he needed her. But, she turned away from him-after all the stuff he overlooked for her (he knew about the affair, didn't he?-I thought he did).
I don't understand why Lori didn't understand that they had to "take care of" Shane. Didn't she tell Rick that he was dangerous? Or, that he tried to off Rick?
