Summary
Dean expected his brother to find a way to cope after he was dragged Downstairs. He figured Sam would go back to Stanford, or maybe stick with Bobby and live up to the Winchester name. By no means did he, even for a second, think Sam might look to parenting as a coping mechanism.
“You’re a hunter, Sam, not a freaking foster dad."
Sam says he can be both, and he isn't giving up Liam for anything or anyone. Not Ruby. Not demon blood or revenge. Not Heaven or Hell. Not even Dean.
“Liam stays. It’s not up for debate.”
Heaven wasn't expecting this, either. They thought Sam would enter a self-destructive tailspin—and for a while, he did—but Sam tore up the playbook when he decided to be a family man instead of a blood junkie. Not that they're concerned; they know how to get what they want.
“Do you really think they’re going to stop gunning for you just because you’ve got baggage now?”
All Liam wants is to complete sixth grade without straight Ds or dying. It sounds like a relatively easy goal. It is not, and if one more angel or demon or monster tries to eat him or smite him or haul him off to who knows where, he is boycotting math.

Summary
"Dean expected Sam to find a way to cope after he was dragged to Hell. He thought Sam would go back to Stanford, or maybe stick with Bobby and keep living up to the Winchester name. By no means did he think Sam might look to parenting as a coping mechanism."
The Apocalypse is on, and the Winchesters are running from angels and demons alike. They're going to do everything they can to keep themselves from being used as vessels, but hiding from the forces of Heaven and Hell isn't easy. Not to mention, they're hiding from the forces of Heaven and Hell while trying to raise a twelve-year-old boy in a somewhat normal environment.
Who are they kidding? They're Winchesters. Normal was never an option.
