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.
The shy lad, whose voice has not yet broken, said: “I thought it would be good to have a baby.
“I didn’t think about how we would afford it. I don’t really get pocket money. My dad sometimes gives me £10.”

I can't even look at that picture. He looks like he's still in elementary school. WTF? What happened to legos and Xbox and riding your bike?
You could say hope for the best...but is his best really going to be good enough??

The pics from this story make it look pretty bogus. This article is from the SUN. People really need to stop posting tabloid fake news on here.

13 years old and had no idea at all that unprotected sex could lead to this or a care in the world when it did. I understand that you cant watch your kids 24-7 and kids will do what kids will do however it seems obvious that no one has ever taught this child about sex or its consequences. His complete ignorance of the magnitude of having this child is unbelievable. I have four teenage daughters and while I'm not claiming that this would never happen to them, I can guarantee you they all now how it happens and what it would mean if it did.

Firstly, why is a 15 year old girl shagging a 13 year old boy?
Secondly, why is this 13 year old allowed to have a girlfriend older than him?
His dad sometimes gives him £10, he should have given him some parental guidance.

Planned parenthood?
Again a sick reflection on society.
A case where an abortion tragically would have been the best answer.
A bad reflection on our society....and their parents.....

Oh you guys are just plain jealous.
The guy's ready for sex and has proven it- he'll figure out the rest. I bet you he'll be a better daddy than some 31-year old men I know.
Anyway, good stuff, kid.....keep it up!

I think you misread that comment. He was 21 when he had his first CHILD, and thinks he was still too young for the responsibility.

I have a 12 yr old and if she ever got pregnant i wouldn't know what to do....But where were the Parents at when everthing was going on and also where was this? What is America coming too there is to many young people under having kids or thinking about having kids....they just need to think about there health and an EDUCATION....so please learn from this and don't do it....

Damn! That sucks! I'm thinking 13 is about an 8th grader or freshman in high school, so I'm assuming it's not that rare. Yes it sucks, but he's not the first to have a baby at thirteen.

Why not? Many thirteen-year-old boys already produce sperm in their semen. Bar Mitzvah - a rite of passage from boyhood to manhood - ais celebrated when a boy reaches thirteen years of age, and in Jewish law, a boy of thirteen is considered a man and allowed to marry.
