SO YOU SLEPT WITH HER Wtf is wrong with people.

in conjunction with the post previous I can't help but read this in a Jeremy Kyle voice.

"Quite often what fails to recognise is that in some of the more difficult communities, this has become pretty much the norm.", says man of the people Iain Duncan Smith. As a resident of a recent Teenage Pregnancy Capital of Europe™ and former resident of a strong competitor for that title, I've heard of one case of a 14-year-old mother and, other than that, a small smattering of 15-year-olds (and a million 16-year-olds, of course). News story in not quite being matter of dog bites man shockrrrrr.

xpost - I don't know, when I was 14 there were a few girls in my year that had babies, it's not exactly rare (this was back when the Tories were in charge so sod you Ian Duncan Smith).

A friend of mine's 13 year old daughter is pregnant at the minute and it's pretty heartbreaking. Like the lad in these photos she looks more like she's 10 than 13 and she's having to spend the last three months in hospital because it's taking such a physical toll on her. I know it's still bad that a lad as young-looking a Alfie is a dad but the first thing I thought when I saw the photo was how much worse it would be if it was the mother that looked like that rather than the dad.

is it possible to tell someone "you'd make an AWESOME welfare queen" without it being a slight?

16yr old cuts a break by apparently not siring child of underage girl he's been sleeping with, demands dna test to prove he is SOLELY so he can get in the tabloids.

So much for the 'false perspective' theory. I think I find this bit the most astonishing though:

Richard’s mother Barbie-Jayne, 35, backs his story ... Last night she proudly boasted of twice appearing on TV’s Trisha show as a guest on programmes about having an overbearing personality and overactive sex life

Trisha's guests are real??

Ismael Klata, Sunday, 15 February 2009 08:57 (fifteen years ago) link

Hmm. Barbie-Jayne. There can't be too many of those around, is this her?

StanM, Sunday, 15 February 2009 09:14 (fifteen years ago) link

kinda strange that the Sun (or more likely the government) would not require a DNA test before registering a child of a 12 and 15 year old as theirs..

Pint glass, dragon shirt, chest tattoo, wedding dress, reception possibly in school gym - I'm guessing it might be xp

Dudes Flying High is on TV right this second, and the scene with the little girl and the coffee isn't so funny anymore.

Am I the only person who looks at the above photo and thinks the girl looks scarily like Vic Reeves?

Forest Pines Mk2, Sunday, 15 February 2009 12:31 (fifteen years ago) link

it's the boobs

Still can't believe this is real.

4 sexing

ice cr?m, Sunday, 15 February 2009 13:21 (fifteen years ago) link

so that's her + the 3 dads = 4 sexing?

StanM, Sunday, 15 February 2009 16:14 (fifteen years ago) link

lol at Americans coming to this thread to lol at Brits. The only British thing about this is the pathetic soul searching we're all supposed to do when some idiot "falls" pregnant.

Ned Trifle II, Sunday, 15 February 2009 16:18 (fifteen years ago) link

O_o

StanM, Sunday, 15 February 2009 16:22 (fifteen years ago) link

Well, that and the fact that it happened in Britain! Dudes stop
biting the sucky parts of American culture

Lots of praying with no breakfast! (HI DERE), Sunday, 15 February 2009 16:22 (fifteen years ago) link

Yeah, if there were US teenagers who scarily closely resemble characters from Lost who happen to get pregnant, I'd laugh at them too!

Nicolars (Nicole), Sunday, 15 February 2009 16:42 (fifteen years ago) link

as the parent of a 13 year old, I probably shouldn't have read this :-/

m coleman, Sunday, 15 February 2009 16:46 (fifteen years ago) link

Ned, was that totally uncalled for attack at Americans a pathetic trolling attempt or did you really think it was neccesary?

Okay I can't be the only person here genuinely surprised that there's only one 13-year old father in the UK?

Kenan stfu.

Maximo Park Ji-Sung (Matt DC), Sunday, 15 February 2009 17:41 (fifteen years ago) link

It surprised me too, as I'm also from one of our Teenage Pregnancy Capitals (and used to work with an early-30s grandmother)

Shoulda not assumed big boobs = ability to get loads of impressionable teenage boys into your knickers, you silly twit.

I have no idea what you are talking about.

Ned Trifle II, Sunday, 15 February 2009 22:18 (fifteen years ago) link

Guys, as I said upthread the whole Mary Kay Letourneau thing from the 90s is like 25 times more creepier than this, and the US then was all "oh wow weirdo creeppee, Leno's joke about it last night was so funny, anyway..."

System Jr. (Mackro Mackro), Sunday, 15 February 2009 22:45 (fifteen years ago) link

I think the lolling is mainly at the 13-that-looks-like-he's-6yo guy's facial expressions regarding the whole being a daddy thing. This would have been awkward and kinda funny in any western country, but admittedly the UK outrage here is kinda adding to that a lil'.

I guess I'm used to having messed up shit like this going unreported all the time all around me, I dunno.

System Jr. (Mackro Mackro), Sunday, 15 February 2009 22:47 (fifteen years ago) link

The papers here haven't finished with it yet. Melanie Philips has written her second column on it, the Mail has moved onto "what are social services going to do about this" and The Sun has Alfie (possibly) taking a DNA test. Meanwhile the eternally righteous British public get their monthly opportunity to poor scorn on the "chavs" and beat themselves up abut "broken Britain" as we have been doing since the 17th century (at least).

really excellent stanning on behalf of the labour party here, great work, wonderful party.
