WTF dosent kids have sex ed or something?? and smoking isnt that bad for the baby?

Disscuss

 

[ryanwh]

Actually they DONT have sex ed for that age group anywhere in the world :P

I didn't have sex ed until seventh grade, and she's only 11. Though, I don't think you can actaully give birth that young...Can you? And it said she was out of school for... FIGHTING??? PREGNANT??? In addition to smoking and drinking, I'm worried for tha babies' health O.o

Im from the UK and no we don't have Sex Ed, at least I didn't and I went to a ver y big school. I had some lessons one or two lessons about sex in a class where you learnt about various things throughout the year like drugs, alcohol, can't really remember what else. Anyway, I think I was 14 at the time and this girl is 11, she would only just be going to high school I think and not have started anything like that.

It's not surprising to me, I knew quite a few girls at that age that were already sexually active, the only difference this time being she got pregnant and decided to have the baby.
...And yeah of course smoking is bad for a baby... It's irresponsible of both her and whoever allows her to do so.

Her 34-year-old mother, who gave birth to her youngest child eight months ago, said she was 'proud' of her daughter.

The girl smokes 20 cigarettes a day despite being eight months' pregnant.

:\

Sex-ed was grade 10 here. Earlier than that they just had a couple abstinence & chasity (I think that's the word) presentations

Unless she was pass out drunk (something no 11 year old should ever be)
why is the boy being charged with rape? I mean neither of them are adults so it's not statutory and it's just as much her fault as his!

 

[ryanwh]

I was thinking that too. Its very chovanistic to only charge the boy, especially when neither are anywhere near old enough to do anything consentual. The parent should be charged of neglect and general whoring up of her daughter(which outta be a crime).

The poor, poor, naive girl... Pity these things happen.

If you guys think that is wierd, than you should look at the youngest mother ever. http://www.snopes.com/pregnant/medina.asp

Oh wow, if you read the article these parents FUCKING SUCK. They should be charged with neglect and the daughter should be charged with drinking underage (an 11 year old drinking?? THE FUCK??).

I don't know if Britain's children mature faster than American children or something, but an 11 year old generally hasn't even gone through puberty yet which kind of makes the entire thought rather nasty in mind. I keep thinking of my sister's friends (who are in that age group) and nearly vomit because the idea is just too radical for me. I know the effects of alchohol on the mind... but I also know the difference between an underdeveloped prepubescent girl and a full grown woman.

Seriously... this is something like out of a Japanese lolikon. The parents don't even care and the girl is like "fuck my baby i smoke! i will take my baby out for walks and he'll be in school while i'm still in school ROCK ON PREGNANCY!"

 

[TofuMatt]

I'd hit that.

P.S. Lolicon is a bit different, because it isn't real. It's easy for someone to make that distinction (though probably easy for someone a little off kilter to *not*).

She's crazy for having it though.

I had sex ED 5th grade. I was 9 years old. Didn't go into detail, but I knew what a condom was and where it went.

I think the parents should be held accountable for this as well.

 

[Z-Row]

american kids are sheltered.

 

[Marcus]

american kids are sheltered.

I had sex ed in the 4th grade and a lesson on sexual harrassment in the 3rd. Few of us understood what was going on, but we were still educated on it.

Hay, the first person that had this subject before 9th... and I was worried I had a *strange* teacher that days... (also 5th grade). Well, maybe we both had ^_^ Grose...

@Topic: Well, I suppose, we don't need to sorrow about a 11yo, drinking, smoking kid whose own mother is proud of her for getting laid before she knew about... let's call it dependence. This is a fucked-up family, too bad they reproduce that fast...

I was just going to post this. It's very possible to birth at 11. From the time a girl has her first period, be it 11 or even 5, she can get pregnant.

I had sex ed/general growing up stuff when I was in the fourth grade, fifth grade and eighth grade. Oh, and tenth grade, when it was required to take half a year of Health.

chau·vin·ism Pronunciation Key (shv-nzm)
n.

1. Militant devotion to and glorification of one's country; fanatical patriotism.
2. Prejudiced belief in the superiority of one's own gender, group, or kind: “the chauvinism... of making extraterrestrial life in our own image” (Henry S.F. Cooper, Jr.).

Grammar fascism aside, that 11-year old is a nasty skank and I hope her baby comes out like mashed potatoes.

Because under English law a child that age CANNOT consent to sexual activity. Period. End of story. Therefore any sexual activity is nonconsensual, hence, rape.

Also, you're misunderstanding what statutory rape actually is. It's not a participant's status as an adult that makes sexual activity statutory rape. It's all about whether or not one (or both) of the participants is legally incapable of consenting to the sexual activity. I'll give a few examples (all using Florida laws, since I know those without looking them up):

1) Two 15 year olds have consensual sex. This is legal because there is no statute that prohibits it.
2) A 21 year old and a 16 year old have consensual sex. This is illegal because a 16 year old is legally incapable of consenting to sex with a person 18 or over.
3) A 21 year old and a 17 year old have consensual sex, This is legal because a 17 year old CAN consent to sex with a person 18 or over.
4) A 25 year old has consensual sex with a 17 year old. This is illegal because a 17 year old cannot consent to sex with a person 25 or older.
5) An 11 year old and a 15 year old have consensual sex. This is illegal because an 11 year old is deemed legally incapable of consenting to any sexual activity whatsoever.


The reason why only the boy is being charged is because a 15 year old CAN consent to sexual activity (just not with an adult). Hence, since he did consent, the girl is not guilty of statutory rape.

We had sex ed in year 6 )seventh year, dunno what that translates to in Americanese) and i was 11. But, seriosuly, the number of times you hear about shit like this in England... its not really surprising.

 

[ryanwh]

american kids arent deseased little whores

good point!
Also you're wrong wolf, rape implies one person involved is consenting, neither person in this case is old enough to consent. So they both raped each other by your definition.
