I suspect the mother is probably in a horrible situation, maybe abused, with mental health issues or very young. I hope they get the help they need.

I hope the baby was a still born. Stuff like this always takes me back to stories of the Thames being used to get rid of infants because of a lack of services and care and the world at the moment feels a little like that.

You have to be very ill or very desperate to even consider this.
