Young Enough To Be Her Brother. Boy is Dad at 13 Years.

[Pen Rua]

:O

Story from The Sun.

BOY dad Alfie Patten yesterday admitted he does not know how much nappies cost — but said: “I think it’s a lot.”

Baby-faced Alfie, who is 13 but looks more like eight, became a father four days ago when his girlfriend Chantelle Steadman gave birth to 7lb 3oz Maisie Roxanne.
He told how he and Chantelle, 15, decided against an abortion after discovering she was pregnant.



Alfie, who is just 4ft tall, added: “When my mum found out, I thought I was going to get in trouble. We wanted to have the baby but were worried how people would react.
“I didn’t know what it would be like to be a dad. I will be good, though, and care for it.”
Alfie's story, broken exclusively by The Sun today has sparked a huge political storm with David Cameron saying: "When I saw these pictures this morning, I just thought how worrying that in Britain today children are having children."
"I hope that somehow these children grow up into responsible parents but the truth is parenthood is just not something they should be thinking about right now."
PM Gordon Brown refused to comment directly on the story but said it was important that the Government did all it could to prevent teenage pregnancies.
Alfie’s dad Dennis told how the lad does not really understand the enormity of his situation — but seemed desperate to be a devoted and responsible father.
Secret

He wanted to be the first to hold Maisie after the hospital birth. He tenderly kisses the baby and gives her a bottle.
And Dennis, 45, said: “He could have shrugged his shoulders and sat at home on his Playstation. But he has been at the hospital every day.”
Maisie was conceived after Chantelle and Alfie — just 12 at the time — had a single night of unprotected sex.
They found out about the baby when Chantelle was 12 weeks pregnant.
But they kept it a secret until six weeks later when Chantelle’s mum Penny, 38, became suspicious about her weight gain and confronted her.

This kid is crazily young to have a child. His voice hasn't even broken. I was like "o:" when I heard the story at first.

Your comments?

[hawk]

:O
I bet that boy wanted a baby.
Baby at 13?:rolleyes:
I bet he will have more than 20 in the future:scary:

[Danni115]

oh my!!!!!!!!!! WHAT THE???? kids now too much these days... o.O i cant believe it! he looks so young and look at the baby O.O that its so wrong! ....

[Basketcase1]

Woah. That boy looks so young.

It's kind of...terrible that he did that at such a young age, but they do look like they will care for the baby. And ofc, their parents will help too.

[iWaddle]

Their lucky the baby had no problems.

[Samwesty999]

That article shows a good example of how England is turning out for a lot of teenagers. But seriously, about 50% of the people in my grade/year have had underage sex. I don't want to stay in a country anymore that is full of chavs, young parents, drugs, crime, knife killing, illegal immigrants, bad weather, gangs, pollution, unfriendly people, expensive prices, a pathetic government and a poor health service. Because of all this, I want to move to America when I am older.

More on topic: I think what he did was disgusting at the age of twelve and I hope he pays for it when he is older by not going out with his mates because he has to babysit. Advice to you all: wear a condom, unless you really want one.

Edit: I just watched the video and I thought that the female was the boys mum! It was only after that I realized that she was the babies mum! She must be a foot r two bigger than him! :O

[Snoopy4life]

Wow... Sad world and jeebus that's bad.

[Jeebus]

Wow, that's really young. At least the kid is actually being fatherly towards it and not just handing it over to his parents.

Although, they're right. That's young enough for the father to be a brother. There's a 19 year age difference between my newborn brother and sister and my oldest sister...

[Dracophile]

This is like the worst way possible to get that news achievement.

[Powdinet]

So? People who are very young-aged have babies all the time.

Some years ago one portuguese girl had a baby... at the age of 11

[Pen Rua]

This is like the worst way possible to get that news achievement.
Actually, I have posted numerous news stories before the achievements came.

[penguindude515]

Those. Kids. Are. Idiots. They have no idea what's ahead of them.

So? People who are very young-aged have babies all the time.

Some years ago one portuguese girl had a baby... at the age of 11

So, it's stupid.

EDIT: Woah, he's thirteen? He looks like maximum ten years old.

EDIT 2: Wait, that's his girlfriend?! She's twelve years old?!

[Dracophile]

When I was 11 and 12 years old I was playing Pokemon and not getting laid. Almost 10 years later not a whole lot has changed.

[Miss 100]

Thirteeeen?!

My parents were aged 43 and 44 when they had me! Old people, lol. :D

Anyway, I actually can't get my head around the fact that that boy is a father.
He looks so young! Argh. Oh well, I wish them well. I hope things work out for them...

[Pen Rua]

When I was 11 and 12 years old I was playing Pokemon and not getting laid. Almost 10 years later not a whole lot has changed.
While playing Pokemon, you were trying to get your Dialga laid... :rolleyes:

[REBEL]

“I didn’t know what it would be like to be a dad. I will be good, though, and care for it.”

hahah, it.
they sound... immature and unresponsible.
who cares.

I don't even know what a Dialga is.

[Pen Rua]

It is scary, having second thoughts on the issue.... I mean doing it at twelve, why not wait another four years...

I really hope the "couple" take care of the baby.

Fake Edit:

[CrankyKong]

He's 13, has had sex, but doesn't know what financially means? :confused:

They look like a great couple.. I feel queasy now. :sick:

[REBEL]

They look like a great couple.

exactly what i was thinking! the boy looks 7 or 8 years old, and the girl looks like his mom or his airbrushed grandmother. and the baby is ugly. so yay.

[Yoki]

Dat kid be pimpin'

No but in all seriousness, all that matters is that the baby is fine and was born without any problems.

[walmartshrty]

*Irresponsible

That picture has scarred me for life. The kid looks like he is five, his child will be able to carry him before he can carry him.

Meh. The baby will be fine though, my guess is that she (?) will be mostly raised by her (?) grandparents.

EDIT: Seriously, the mother is such a ho. She can't even get a man her own size.

I was thinking the mollester and the mollested when I saw that picture Dx

[walmartshrty]

I know, look at that frightened look on his face as he sits next to his molester.

(RHETORICAL QUESTION NOT INTENDED FOR UNDERAGER EYES)
How can you want to do it with someone the size of a midget? Maybe she has a fetish?

[Tina]

The boy looks about 8. Very...underdeveloped. I'm surprised he can even produce sperm. XD

Anyways, MATH TIME:

Child=13
Dad=26


Hmm. O.o

I wonder if they used protection, I mean, they'd be stupid to not, but...


EDIT: Those kids look wayyyy to familar.

[Pen Rua]

@ Wally - The woman sitting on the bed is his mother, not the baby's mother.

[Steve Green]

This is like the worst way possible to get that news achievement.

Hahahahahaha, I couldn't agree more.

But this kid seriously has no idea what hes in for.

[Tina]

@ Wally - The woman sitting on the bed is his mother, not the baby's mother.

According to the article, it is the mother of the baby.

[Wanted Penguin]

the mom sure is desperate.

and the baby looks older than the dad <_<

[conman1001]

Really, I mean come on, how stupid can you be? Unprotected sex at 12 and 14, have some common sense!

[phenom21]

This is like the worst way possible to get that news achievement.

I couldn't have agreed more. Couldn't have you put a better story or something? :rolleyes: That kid looks waaaaaay too young. And the girl, you should've known better.

[Mook]

That is uhh werid?

I think the kid needed to wait another 10 years or so.:rolleyes:

[Chargers2133]

I'm suprised the baby didn't come out demented. That is shocking.

[Football09]

That boy looks really young. :O

[John-h]

Where do these kids learn these things?

[rouge135]

Wow, that is just great. I would kill myself.

[Tammika]

Ugh.

The boy REALLY looks eight, like everyone says. O.o

And yes, I think they should finish their studies first before they get married and have kids.

One word: Irresponsibility.

@John-h: I think those kids learn them in television, and from other people at their age. :rolleyes:

[Agent Pointy]

Wow. He really does look like a little kid. I hope he is a good father, although i do not agree, I think they were right not to have the abortion.

[worldking01]

Eh. Happened last year at my school. No need to ruin the boys life by making it national news.

[TnT]

Seem like the baby will be in good care atleast.
Not good to hear that they had a baby though. :P

[Phenom]

At least the beautiful Chantelle didn't have octuplets then reveal she has 6 kids already and that she is on food stamps and then opens up a web site that is open for donations then hire a PR agent and tattles on the doctor that gave her the treatment saying he was experimenting.

In other words, way to go Alfie :D

[Pen Rua]

According to the article, it is the mother of the baby.
There is no way she is 15 :O.

@ Steve - I had the news achievement before this.

[Nut]

Looks like Britain finally got the memo from the American teens.

[GluGluCute]

That's just sick and wrong. 13?! You talk about teen pregnancy, this is barely teen pregnancy. xP Seriously, who would want to even try at 13?

[ThisIsSparta]

I feel really bad for the baby.

[Pen Rua]

I just saw the news again, and that was the mother. She looks old enough to be Alfie's mum o:

But I mean... A 12 year old doing it with a 15 year old... :sick: I'm sorry, but that is wrong, not to mention illegal.

[Penny44546]

I don't know what to say. This is just... wrong. Don't you think thats way to young to be doing... that? Anyways, I saw this on Inside Edition right after I read this thread.

[Torkoal123]

Whoa, that is just wrong. Look here http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article2238252.ece

[Tina]

Whoa, that is just wrong. Look here http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article2238252.ece

Ah yes, playing video games all day. He'll be a great father. :rolleyes:

[STaLAmiTe 67]

When I first saw it I thought Chantelle wasn't there and the girl there was Alfie's mum.

[JeDii]

That kid looks six years old at the most, and his girlfriend is so pale she looks like a vampire o.0

I really feel sorry for the baby though. It'll probably be pretty bad for him growing up.

[Chandru]

Maybe not. Hopefully they'll stay with family.

[ThisIsSparta]

How come the Sun keeps refering to the guy as "baby-face"? I know, he DOES look like half his age, but...

[GluGluCute]

That kid looks six years old at the most, and his girlfriend is so pale she looks like a vampire o.0

I really feel sorry for the baby though. It'll probably be pretty bad for him growing up.

Oh my gosh you're right. He looks like, five! The girlfriend looks older than 13. What are they? xP

[GSP-x]

Kids these days... :rolleyes:
They could all be brother and sisters. :S

I know people in my school who have had it underage and its disgusting but thats the way England is...

Chavvy.

I feel sorry for the baby.

[Pen Rua]

Just found this out:

Other boys are claiming to have conceived the mother of the baby, saying that they had had sex with the mother around the same time.

:O

[Nut]

This kid has the confidence you would get out of an 8 year old. I'm sure he will be a great father.


I just can't see him getting her pregnant.

[Wanted Penguin]

wow, i just found this article that says the girl had sex with eight other boys around the same time she slept with alfie.

http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/news/177665/Richard-Goodsell-Im-the-real-daddy-Alfie-and-I-want-a-DNA-test-to-prove-it.html

i don't think it was alfie that got her pregnant, he doesn't even look like he's hit puberty yet. it had to be one of the other boys. i feel bad for him, he seems so innocent in all of this.

but jesus that girl is EAAAAASY.

[REVENGE]

I really feel sorry for the baby though.

Me too, it's going to look like a fricken ape.

This is insane, and eight different guys? What a floozy.

[REBEL]

^hahah. i lol'd.

^“To be honest I didn’t really fancy her. She asked me out a couple of times when she moved down here but I kept turning her down. I thought she was ugly."

oh lawds. this is great.

but jesus that girl is EAAAAASY.That is just sick.SICK SICK SICK!EIGHT other boys?That is crazy.

[conman1001]

Wow, the girl is crazy, I mean, 8 other guys!

[GSP-x]

Having it with an 12 year old was bad, but 8 OTHER GUYS.

That is wrong. Really wrong. But thats england for you.... -_-

[CrankyKong]

Wow, sex with eight other guys she might as well become a prostitute. :|

Maybe she had sex with thirty other guys we don't even know about.
That's wrong on so many levels.

[Dracophile]

wow, i just found this article that says the girl had sex with eight other boys around the same time she slept with alfie.

When she takes an STD test she has to purchase the ream of paper used to print the results. :rolleyes:

[Tina]

Talks in educated voice:


I think Chantelle has self-confident issues. That's usually it if she has sex with that much guys. Either that or she is a sex addict or a prostitute...

I don't think Alfie is the father, I would be surprised if he can even produce sperm yet.

[Jeebus]

Ahaha eight other people. Oh gosh. They could all do a Mama Mia and each claim an 8th of 'Little Maisie' xD

But I don't think it was Alfie. He doesn't look mature enough to make uh...man juice.

EDIT: Too bad she didn't have octuplets and become another Octo-Mom. Then they really could pull the Mama Mia.

[Maine Rocks]

This is just disgusting! I mean, look at that ugly girl!:sick:

No, but seriously that is just gross and I don't think they will be good parents.

[Someone Else]

Dude probably doesn't know what a condom is! xD

[Snoopy4life]

I still think these kids have some issues about them ;o

[milk buddy]

When I was 11 and 12 years old I was playing Pokemon and not getting laid. Almost 10 years later not a whole lot has changed.

So sig quoting material.

[Area51]

We are trying to prevent teenage pregnancies. If we won the battle, this story would seize to exist.

[hoagie master 12]

woooow. that kid....
12? jeez. 12?12?
and.....
that???
SO WRONG!!!!!

[artist]

And I heard he "did it" at 12..... that is crazy insane xD

[flyn pnut]

That article shows a good example of how England is turning out for a lot of teenagers. But seriously, about 50% of the people in my grade/year have had underage sex.

join the club dude. england is boring and me and my friend have already planned a buisness to move out to america and make cars and stuff.


That sicko kid should get a life i have seen a photo of him and he looks really young. the moms (chantelle) now saying that he isnt the dad :rolleyes: i have a little brother who is seven months and im fourteen so it basicly the same.

[Chocolat 65]

Whatever they say, that kid isn't as innocent as he looks. I can't believe a kid of that age can want to have sexual intercourse. Shocking. I'm speechless.

[FireBlaze]

That is sad...but why do british people say mum instead of mom? I just don't get that

[biodue123]

geez, such a ho, 8 other guys:rolleyes::!:

but, i hope that they raise her good......

[SaFiEtCP]

That is sad...but why do british people say mum instead of mom? I just don't get that

Off topic: Its probably just the accent, mUm

On topic: What is this world coming to? Parents at 13 and 15?

geez, such a ho, 8 other guys:rolleyes::!:

Well apperently social workers came and interviewed them, and found them suitable to be parents. O.o

[Detonate!]

Well apperently social workers came and interviewed them, and found them suitable to be parents. O.o

0_O Woah....That's rather shocking.

[JohnLennon64]

All I can say is that sure is one ladies man.

[Payton]

Most of my friends have "done it" as most of you say, luckily they haven't gotten anyone pregnant... :blush:

[Tina]

I know a lot of people who have had sex, and who are my age. It isn't a big deal. Now, the folks we are talking about here, didn't use a condom/any way of birth control. Which, is really immature.
