My mom told me once that if a girl in her HS got pregnant, she "magically disappeared" for 9 months and came back baby-free. This usually meant that she'd had the baby and given it up for adoption.

In some communities, we're seeing that when a girl gets pregant, her parents seem to take on the parental role with the baby, allowing her to continue "living her life" so to speak. Thus sticking the parents with another kid in addition to the ones they already have.

LOL.

I've heard it described as "going on a vacation" too.

What did they call it on "Desperate Housewives" when Danielle van de Kamp was pregnant? I think they sent her to a convent for unwed mothers, but said that she was at "Boarding School in Switzerland".

In any case, this story in England sounds very, very sad. These kids and the baby have really no opportunities to reach their full potential.

OMG THE BABY IS NOT HIS!!! STOP THE PRESSES!!!1

I'm relieved for him, and kind of not surprised, but he was the best potential father that kid had. It's been alleged that the girl's family decided to frame him as the potential father because he comes from a more affluent background.

Hopefully he will see this as dodging a bullet and be extremely careful from now on!

That little girl seems like she might be a hoe.

The link doesn't work. :(

I'm glad for the boy b/c now he can live some sort of normal life and not be a dad at his young age.

How about misguided? and not properly parented? These are still children we're talking about. :(

But....the sweatshirt!!?! Alfie better still be there, even though he's not the daddy like his sweatshirt said ;)


And yeah, what's up with this girl?! I kind of believed her when she said Alfie took her virginity and he was the only one. I thought all of the other young men claiming to be the baby's daddy were just trying to get in on the press. I guess she really did spread her goodies all around :(

This just upsets me. Very sad, but as DS said, not surprising.
