Lookout, THINK, please. Why would she give Christine the telephone number of her adopted parents? I can't think of anything much more cruel. She had her own home and a telephone, surely any conversation she wanted to have with her biological mother would have been better done there.............apart from anything else, is there any proof from Christine that she was going to phone Sheila that night?
Personally I couldn't think of anything more cruel than for June to tell Sheila that she was an unfit mother.
Did anyone know for sure what was to become of the twins ? Whatever had been discussed round the supper table,it certainly didn't bode well with Sheila. If you put yourself in her position where at first she thought there was a chance ( in her own mind ) that she and Colin would get back together. Then her mother suggesting foster care in the event that Sheila goes convalescing. The illness which already had a stronghold. Debts mounting because there was no work.
I honestly don't think that Sheila could hack the fact that Colin and his girlfriend would be taking her boys away from her for their holidays. Would anyone if they were being honest and had the added health problems too ?
There's a possibility that I saw reference to Christine's call on the red forum some time back.
