DAD AT 13 yrs

s the world coming to an end???
When you read Alfie’s story, your heart breaks for this kid. He’s only 13-years-old and the first time he has sex the girl comes up pregnant.

Now he has a baby daughter and he’s still a baby himself. His girlfriend Chantelle and the baby live at home with her dad, who is 43 and jobless, and her five brothers in HUD type housing in London. The family live on benefits (welfare).

Alfie lives with his mother, who is 43 and separated from Alfie’s dad. Alfie spends most of his nights over at Chantelle’s house. He brings his uniform so he can leave for school in the mornings from her house.

BOY dad Alfie Patten yesterday admitted he does not know how much nappies (diapers) cost — but said: “I think it’s a lot.”Baby-faced Alfie, who is 13 but looks more like eight, became a father four days ago when his girlfriend Chantelle Steadman gave birth to 7lb 3oz Maisie Roxanne.

He told how he and Chantelle, 15, decided against an abortion after discovering she was pregnant. The shy lad, whose voice has not yet broken, said: “I thought it would be good to have a baby.

“I didn’t think about how we would afford it. I don’t really get pocket money. My dad sometimes gives me £10 ($20).”

Alfie, who is just 4ft tall, added: “When my mum found out, I thought I was going to get in trouble. We wanted to have the baby but were worried how people would react. “I didn’t know what it would be like to be a dad. I will be good, though, and care for it.”
