omg she's probably one of the first mothers to be born in the 2000s

:umm2: That is disgusting, they should do a DNA test to find out if that guy is really the father too. Parents really need to raise their children better, her mother must be extremely uneducated. My oldest niece is 11 and she hasn't even does as much as hug a boy yet. :nono:

hope they gave the baby a good name

Barbii Shantel

Jesus Christ.

Children from girls under 15 should be automatically taken into state custody and put up for adoption. I feel horrible for this child. How the **** can 12 and 13 yo's take care of a child? They can't. the child should be taken from them immediately.

Do they do that now in California?

no, most Californians would sensibly terminate the pregnancy before it got to this point.

and where did these pictures come from? clearly these children's parents are now SELLING pictures to the tabloids.

The would upset the Bible Folks

what bible folks? the bible doesn't say anything about abortion.

Those that will never harm baby's

I can't think of anything more harmful to a baby than being raised by a 12 y/o.

They do it in Africa

Africa is doing well?

Pregnant at primary school :hugesmile:

Hope this doesn't impact her school work making paper mâché tigers and reading Mr men books.

disgusting child abuse

Disgusting... This is so wrong! The mother of this child doesn't even have an education herself! I don't think these kids should be raising a baby at all. I kind of agree about it needing to be taken away...

I blame the parents of these kids though. Allowing your child to sleep around at that age is so wrong... I bet none of them have had 'the talk'.

Crazy

It is in the Places that China has moved in
and employs the Locals to dig out the metal.
And build roads for Trucks to move
stocks to ports.


All thus
helping China build more and more Electronics
for American Apple and other big companies
as they have the most Metals in stock
used for electrics.

Rancid.

Congrats

I don't see what any of that has to do with protecting children.

This is wrong imo,but to say because they are kids they will be crap parents is wrong too,none of us know their level of maturity,why would you just take a child off them due to their age? many children stay with so called 'adults' and die at their hands,it shouldn't have happened in the first place ,but it has ,so lets hope they go on to be good parents to this child,I am sure they will have the support of their parents and immediate family too and I am sure they will be monitored.

have you ever met a 12 y/o you thought was capable of raising an infant?

I have an 11 year old nearly,and she is wonderful with her smaller brothers and although this should not have happened at such a young age I think it's unfair to judge them solely on their age,we all know its wrong,but its done,besides some 40 year olds cannot parent properly,there was something happened like this a few years ago,everyone said they would be awful parents,but they are still together and bringing their child up,it's not an ideal situation,but it can work.

having an 11 y/o that watches her sister sometimes is not the same as a 12 y/o being a parent.

The truth is, the grandparents are going to end up being the parents. and based on how they raised their own daughter, i don't think they'll be much better as grandparents than they were as parents for this new child.

Probably doesn't bode well that the girls mother herself is only 27 so had her daughter when she was 15, they're getting younger all the time

exactly. at some point, someone needs to break the cycle. even if it is the government.

Well said.

God, I thought I was good with kids (I'm 20) and I had to deal with a crying baby yesterday for 2 hours or so and I thought I was losing my mind.

I can't even imagine what an 11 year old would do in that position. I don't think any 11 year old can deal with something so stressful. I think it's abuse for the poor baby having an 11 year old mother... It's just so wrong.

It's unfortunate but as said hopefully the family will rally round, it's not a damning indictment on society.

..it doesn't really sit well that her mum said that they were in a long term relationship for a year..so at 11yrs old, a parent didn't discourage and allowed a 'long term' relationship with a 12 yr old and his parents did as well..?...I know that they will probably get much support and care from the authorities to raise the child but I do wonder if it is the best thing and whether it is also a good use of stretched resources when there are so many children in awful situations that need those resources...

Well we all know it's not the done thing,but just taking her away from them imo is not the answer.

They can't have realised how far the relationship had 'progressed'... I wouldn't have.
Why would they need more resources from authorities than the average family?

The baby should have been aborted - sad as it is

..I think that if you don't 'realise' what your 11 yr old child is doing when it's something so important as having sex, then really there is a communication issue and a parenting issue and I would question what support and guidance the child and grandchild will get in reality...having said that, it is what it is and can't be undone so I hope the best is done for the mum/father and baby and they get the support they need...


EDIT:..oh and welfare will intervene, they will have to have a 'care plan' because the parents are both children and legally obliged to continue education...

I think they should have given it up for adoption

Who sits and watches their 11yr olds in case they have sex?.... nobody.
Oh... and I know they will but there's no reason why education can't continue.

me too... thinking of all the families in the UK alone that would do anything to have a baby, yet these two are having kids at this age... She'll have another within a few years, I'd bet my car on it.

My best friend gave birth at just 15,she is a wonderful mom,she has a part time job and has settled with the father,its not so black and white as "oh,take it off her",who are we to judge who are good parents.

..of course not but there is a huge difference between that and allowing a 'serious relationship' of your 11yr old child to continue...
