Chad

Chad's mom, Shelly Fjerstad, received the email from her son this past March. Chad had been telling her that San Dimas was a model and their trips to L.A. were to be "in movies." While she had her suspicions, the confirmation still came as a shock.

"I read it and I thought, 'Oh my god, oh geez,'" Shelly says. "I told him he's an adult and it's his choice what he is doing. I hope it works out for him and he gets what he wants."

Shelly is much like any Midwestern suburban mom. She's a single empty-nester with a bright, spotless townhouse in Plymouth. And she's still uncomfortable talking about her son's career choice. Shelly keeps her language vague, talking about Chad's "job" and silently laughing when she feels uneasy.

"This means they're having sex with all of those different people," she whispers with a cringe. "I'm just concerned about that. Eww."

An hour later, in a South St. Paul apartment, Chad's dad is concentrating on the Twins-Tigers game. Although he says he can only wish his son luck, Darren can't understand how Chad's relationship with San Dimas will succeed.

"To think that you're both doing other people and you're supposedly in love with each other, I can't fathom that," he says. "To me that don't work, but I guess it's a mindset."

Darren sits forward, adjusting himself in his chair and lighting up another cigarette.

"I would kind of like to see him use his brain," Darren says. "I know he's got one."
