About this listen

‘I’m going to love my baby and give her lots of attention,’ Jade said. ‘I’ll show my mum she’s wrong.’

Jade, 17, is pregnant, homeless and alone when she’s brought to live with Cathy. Jade is desperate to keep her baby, but little more than a child herself, she struggles with the responsibilities her daughter brings.

Cathy is worried as soon as Jade arrives: she’s never looked after a pregnant teenager before, but none of the mother and baby carers is free, and – seventeen years old, seven months pregnant and homeless – Jade is in a desperate situation.

But Jade doesn’t want to listen or advice and although her daughter is born safely it isn’t long before Jade’s in trouble with the police.

Cathy knows that Jade loves her daughter with all her heart, but will she be able to get through to Jade in time to make her realise just how much she might lose?

Another great listen from Cathy Glass and her experience with Jade and Courtney. I read these so fast as I’m so invested in finding out the child’s outcome.

Very sad story of teenage couple who are having a baby and far too young to be a parents. In this instance social services did not disappoint! Cathy’s love, patient and understanding is blessing. I cried often. I love Denica’s narration and he calming voice!

Couldn’t stop listening
