Jackson and his parents need to wake up and remember the words DNA. I really hope Anna stops shoving that massive baby in Faye's face and keeps telling her "she is a mother".
ReplyDeleteYes, it's a huge baby isn't it? For one supposedly premature too.
ReplyDeleteI never mind about the babies being bigger than they are supposed to be. I always let that one pass because they can't actually use real newborns.
ReplyDeleteDNA and counselling for Faye and Anna.
ReplyDeleteBetter get them on Jeremy Kyle !!!
ReplyDeleteWhere are the social workers to help the Windass family deal with this life-changing event? Where are the education officials to offer Faye schooling in a unit for young mums? Anna doesn't have to give up her job as there are a range of benefits and available services. The writers aren't keeping it real and they seem determined to make Anna even more of a martyr. In the end, though, I'm pretty sure the baby will be adopted otherwise the storyline will be too much like Sarah's.
ReplyDeleteHumpty well said! In our city we have a school specifically for young mothers (with childcare included). That way the girls get the support and learn of the services available to them. But of course this won't happen on corrie because no one has the brains enough to look into it!
ReplyDeleteWhat Humpty and anonymous said - except I really feel this child should be given up for adoption. (Gosh, can Owen be right?)
ReplyDeleteAbout the Liz "buttering up" Tony bit, I wouldn't blame him for being annoyed. Steve and Michelle are grown adults and shouldn't be using anyone's money but their own for a wedding.
ReplyDeleteEven worse that Liz feels it's okay to ask her boyfriend for cash...I can just imagine her reaction if he'd asked her to chip in for Eva and Jason's house!
