Though he stands just 4ft tall, comes equipped with semblance 8 year old, and speaks with an awkwardly high pitched voice, 13-year-old Alfie is now a father.
His 16-year-old girlfriend Chantelle claims it was an instance of one evening where the two had unprotected sex (obviously?), an evening that also happened to be Alfie’s first time.
“I thought it would be good to have a baby,” Alfie told the Sun.
“I didn’t think about how we would afford it. I don’t really get pocket money. My dad sometimes gives me £10.”
His father showed a general lack of concern, stating: “He could have shrugged his shoulders and sat at home on his Playstation. But he has been at the hospital every day.”
Isn’t that what a father is supposed to do?
And why bring up the Playstation? Isn’t that sort of like telling the guy bagging your groceries, “you know, I’m really proud of you. You could have gone to college and made something of yourself, done something big with your life, had a ton of money, slept with any woman you wanted–but for someone who gave up on themself–has a worthless peasant job, is twenty pounds overweight, and probably can’t afford a car–you really came through by placing my frozen bag of peas in the same bag as the other frozen food, and not with the bread. I admire you.”
Somehow I think the two are connected.
