In Episode 1, Mr Lucas and Pauline can be heard having sex (during the scene where Adrian says he's got the camping bed for Mr Lucas) but nothing is shown. Adrian is also given dirty magazines but nothing graphic is shown.

Pauline running away from home with Mr Lucas could count as abandoning Adrian, but he still lives with his father and later visits his mother, and later still she returns home.

Doreen Slater's son Maxwell cries while he and his mother are staying at Adrian's house - however he is not a baby, but is young enough that it's worth a mention.
