Mandy's son was formally adopted by her husband Pete. They now live happily together with their other children.
But although Mandy escaped her father's abuse, she couldn't escape the consequences. Her son was born with a genetic disability.
Thirty years on, she still cares for him 24 hours a day. He loves his PlayStation and wrestling. He doesn't have the capacity to understand that he was born from abuse, and Mandy is grateful she hasn't had to explain. But it has affected his whole life.
