My friend was living in sheltered accommodation with her boyfriend during her pregnancy so yes she was under close supervision. Unfortunately her boyfriend is Schizophrenic and heavily medicated - they met in a psychiatric ward. Sometimes I fear for the child's future because he's very manipulative, a drug addict and he's also been violent towards my friend. I don't think he could look after his daughter properly (and I'm not sure he would even if he could), so if my friend has another relapse....... what an awful upbringing it could be. Hopefully the grandparents and social workers would step in to smooth things out (they both have a team of social workers and psychiatric nurses, along with other personnel looking after them).
