Please Don't Take My Baby

‘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 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?
