This is true, I work in the maternity services and we ask women about domestic violence and the partner’s occupation but most women don't disclose any information. There is a high chance they would not know anything about his criminal history and she most probably didn't get any unless you are on the sex register social services won't do duck all!Sorry that’s untrue, you don’t have to declare any criminal convictions. Also if you did who’s say people would be honest. The midwife will ask if you have any social services involvement, which they won’t have done as there were no children involved before Sullivan. They don’t monitor you without you knowing, I work within children’s services and that is not what happens.
And it’s not a case of 'oh her partners just done some drug dealing before' both her dad and her partner were convicted of dealing class A drugs and sent away for a long sentence. Once you are in a business like that you don't leave to sell caravans it’s a life style that unfortunately Sullivan will be brought into and be a part of it as its their normal.
Also regarding the sitting on the floor with a hot curling wand with him crawling all over her that is unacctable and dangerous even if you are being vigilant, I have 3 children and I would never let that happen. Just think of how mortified you would be if he grabbed it and burnt all the skin of this hands off? It takes 0.3 seconds for a full thickness burn to a babys skin its just not worth it for some crappy curls for the gram. If you want to do your hair with hot tools do it when your baby is sleeping or in a high chair?! (also she has time to curl her hair but not brush her teeth? each to their own and all that )
