Baby-faced boy not the daddy
19/05/2009 06:53 - (SA)

London - DNA tests have revealed that a 13-year-old British boy who claimed to have fathered a child with his 15-year-old girlfriend was not the dad, according to a court judgment made public on Monday.

Claims that baby-faced schoolboy Alfie Patten made Chantelle Steadman pregnant when he was aged just 12 triggered national soul-searching about Britain's high level of teenage pregnancies.

But the story, reported in February just days after the birth, sparked claims from other boys who lived nearby that they could also be the father and social workers organised a DNA test.

The results, revealed in a high court judgment last month which was only made public on Monday, showed the father was 15-year-old Tyler Barker, who lived on the same housing estate as Steadman in Eastbourne in southern England.

Patten had admitted to the Sun newspaper that he had not thought about how he and his girlfriend would support baby daughter Maisie Roxanne, who was born on February 9, but said: "I will be good though, and care for it."

The 1.22m schoolboy was "extremely distressed" when he was told in March that he was not the father, the court judgment revealed.

This. Without getting myself in hot water, but coming from the UK I can tell you that these kind of people are Britain's equivilent of our own 'simmilar lot' here in SA :o
 
Look at the news paper that ran with the story originally? The Sun... Redtop Tabloid Trash. Still 15 is little better than 12 but god-damned, contraceptives and condoms are free.
