WTF Happened To... Childhood!??!

Holy Balls a 13 year old kid is a dad. Yep. You heard right. He must really have some pretty holy balls if he managed that. (bad joke, I know. But I couldn't resist.) Alfie Patten, 13, of Britain and his girlfriend, Chantelle Steadman, 15, are the proud, underage parents of 7lbs, 3 oz, Maisie Roxanne, born Monday night in Eastbourne Hospital in East Sussex, Britain.




WHAT THE FUCK.


I mean, it is ridiculously commendable that the couple (…of kids) went through with this. But I mean. Really? Alfie, when asked what he is going to do financially, responds with “What’s financially?” in that cute little British accent of his.

First off, how did this happen? He looks like his balls haven’t even dropped yet. He looks like he is coddling his new born baby sister. Nope. He’s the dad. Awesome.

Second off, how is this going to pan out? I might have to subscribe to the British tabloids to follow this story…

So I asked myself, "Self, should you add in a little political message?" And my self answered, "Why the hell not?”

So, here’s my message: In a country where abortion is legal, a couple chooses not to go through with it, when I feel that in the back of everyone’s mind is the sentiment that maybe, they should have, you know, at least thought about it…? So, why all the fuss in America about it? I get it, it’s not exactly moral, but why does the government get to have all the fun in controlling a woman’s body? I’m pretty sure I would never get an abortion, because, let’s face it, I am birth control… but it’d be nice to have the option.

Kdone. I could go on, but I’m over it.

I think this might be one case where British is NOT sexy.



Cute jacket, Alfie.
