Watch the hard-hitting clip above.<\/p> <p>Heather\u2019s mother is first to attack, storming into the room and telling her: \u201cWell, you have done it now. A baby, Heather? What were you thinking?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re getting married the moment you\u2019re 16. Of course, it can\u2019t be in a church now \u2013 the shame of it,\u201d she continued, going so far as to call her daughter \u201cdisgusting\u201d when she protests against staying together with the baby\u2019s father, Nigel.<\/p>\n<p>As the conversation becomes ever more heated and the words increasingly hurtful, Nurse Trixie ushers the furious parents out, but she too has some worrying news to share with Heather.<\/p> <div class=\"&quot;brightcove\" embed=\"\"> <div class=\"&quot;embed__intrinsic&quot;\"> <div class=\"&quot;brightcove__player\" vjs-playlist-player-container=\"\"> <video data-video-id=\"6319237409112\" data-account=\"69912529001\" data-player=\"ByeOf0VZEl\" data-embed=\"&quot;default&quot;\" data-application-id=\"\" controls=\"\" class=\"&quot;video-js&quot;\"> <\/video> <\/div> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<script src=\"&quot;\/\/players.brightcove.net\/69912529001\/ByeOf0VZEl_default\/index.min.js&quot;\"\/> <p>She tells the troubled teen that, as a minor, she does not have the power to decide whether to keep her baby or put them up for adoption, with the latter being her initial plan.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a complex and upsetting case that Nurse Trixie finds herself in the middle of.
