Hi Everyone.
I'm looking for advice in regards to the following.
My son was in a relationship of which this women fell pregnant.
My son and W are over moon about the baby. My son was buying all things that his little one needs. Then issues started to rear.
1. We found out this women has had 4 previous children.
2. They all have been place in care.
A. W had 1st baby when she was 17. This little one ended up in grandmother's care.
B. W had 2nd baby. This little one was in biological fathers care.
C. W had 3rd baby. This little oneis in LA care due to neglect.
D. W had 4th baby who sadly passed away.

Since my son confided in me with the consent of W.

W ended the relationship. Of which my son is so upset.
W contacts my son only when she needs money, stating it for baby. Baby not due till next year.
W is using her pregnancy to get financial gain. She continually harrasses and states that if he don't give her money then he can't attend scans or birth.
I have never known of any one to use a pregnancy for her own gain.
As any one on here been or known of anyone in this circumstance?
I know my son continues to provide financially to W.
Yet he feels like she is abusing is kind nature.
He does not want to cause any stress on W due to her being pregnant of which is an emotional time. Yet she is being so hurtful and abusing him financially and emotionally.
My son as tried not to respond to her messages yet she states that he not a good father and she as stated texting me too.
All We want is to ensure W has a stress free pregnancy. That my son gets to have chance to be involved in the pregnancy and the birth, and have access to his first born child.
I'm lost for word.
I am awhere Children service are involved via the midwife referral.
Can anyone inform me due to W past if my grandchild will assessed as
A a child in need.
B a child in need of protection?
Also
What can my son and me do in these circumstances to ensure our little one don't end up like W other children.
TIA.
