What a happening!  I think that you are doing the right thing at the moment,
especially with having this mum sign in through telephone at night.  The wet
nurse neighbour should be congratulated, do hope she is being well supported
for doing such a magnificent job.   One thought has occurred to me, are these
parents on drugs/drink?  I note that Dad places cigarettes as high priority -
priorities seem a bit skewed.  Do you think that they might be hiding from
some other social services authority/police from whence they came?  Seems
strange to me that she should have such strong  ideals, yet cannot meet meet
deadlines/feed times?  What about parental IQ?  The other thing that placed
itself right in the front of my mind and now cannot ignore - is this woman
really the birth mother of this baby?
