Report shows chances were missed to help teenager forced to bear a child for her mother.

Report shows chances were missed to help teenager forced to artifically inseminate herself and bear a child for her 'domineering' mother.

A review into how a mother was able to force her adopted teenage daughter to impregnate herself using frozen sperm bought over the internet has found that agencies missed chances to protect the family. The children were homeschooled - but education welfare staff had never even met them. A leading education expert tells us the system must be looked at again, and we hear from the Serious Case Review author.  A British doctor who has returned from treating patients in Syria give us his eyewitness account.  And as a report warns pregnant women they should be cautious about possible dangers to their babies from household products, we hear from experts and expectant mums.
