    Talking What a turn-around....

    After all, the mother of the baby was a right little teen-age slapper.

    Original post......
    http://filipinaroses.com/showthread....ght=boy+father

    And today's latest news......

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8056700.stm

    It just shows the state of affairs in the UK nowadays, family breakdowns, lack of education, discipline, and above all, lack of morals.

    It wasn't the first, and, by all means, it won't be the last baby born to immature children.

    What I cannot understand is that since the introduction of Sex Education in UK schools, the rate of teen-age pregnancies had increased to worrying levels, but in other European countries has decreased.

    In mediterrenean countries something like that happening is considered a stigma and would bring untold shame on the family, but here is kind of normal.

    I can comfortably predict that the little slapper in question will have another two kids by age 20....

    ... yes, to my way of thinking also; each of these definitely has the consecutive knock-on effect of one thing leading to another in the following sequence:

    1. Lack of proper education ... leading to-
    2. Family breakdown ... due to-
    3. Lack of discipline ... resulting in-
    4. Lack of moral standards

    It's really sad, especially Alfie Patten was all over the news: tv and papers. He was exposed & ridiculed...

    Worse part: he even acknowledged the baby & was excited about it!

    Up until comparatively recent times - certainly as late as the 1970s - teenage pregnancies [indeed unmarried mothers in general] were stigmatised :eek: here in the UK too. As a youngster growing up in a small rural community during the latter part of the 'fifties/early 'sixties, I recall quite a number of adolescent girls being 'despatched' to some "auntie" or other (usually living by the seaside) for "health reasons" or a so-called rest-cure ...!!

    My, my, it just goes to show how times have changed!

    It doesn't cost much or anything at all to say "NO".

    Yeah ... spread over more than the media! ... probably imagined himself as some sort of 'hero' destined for the Guiness Book of Records, I shouldn't wonder.

    Oh, come on laddie....

    She is twice as big as him, she could have slapped his face to six shades of blue if she wanted to.

    Now it comes out that near enough the whole estate youth gang slept in her bed, with the knowledge of her mother....

    The mind boggles.....

    Apologies to Alfie! I evidently posted the above quotation without being in possession of the FULL facts - which I've since read - and NOW realise that DNA tests have revealed a 15-year-old as being the child's father in this instance. A "right old c**ck up" if EVER there was ...

    ... mind you, what else can one expect when the appointment of 'Children's Secretary' is given to a man with a name like Ed Balls!

    No one's more amazed than ME, Dom! Ta, for rectifying matters; believe it or not, at the age of sixty-four, I'm still "fumbling my way around the keyboard"... most decidedly a case of:

    "DO you still need me?
    DO you still heed me ...
    NOW I'm sixty-four? ... da, da, da ... &c."

    - with apologies to The [surviving] lol2::lol2: Beatles.
