Miracle - the youngest British dad

Since middle of Feburary, UK national newspapers such as the Sun, the Daily Mirror are full of reports on the 13-year-old lad Alfie Patten makes a 15-year-old schoolgirl pregnant.

Miracle - Britain's youngest dad

It was commented by many Sun readers saying that it's the most outrageous, appalling, disgusting and sickest thing they have ever seen.

How can it complies to the law that allows a boy in such a young age to father a baby girl. some readers doubted.

When I first saw the news, I was totally shocked that how can a boy in his age conceive a child? It must be joking!

Sadly, more episodes going on, the 13-year-old dad even bravely decides to take DNA test to prove he's the father of the babygirl and protects his girlfriend's reputation.

Since there are other three local lads claiming to be the father of the child!!

Sex education

Sex education is now reset on the top of agenda and discussing extensively on the board. Conservative leader David Cameron said that it's very very worrying.

And today you got children having children, but frankly parental is something that they shouldn't think about it. That is wrong and we've got to put it right.

According to BBC News, teenage pregnancy under 16, Uk is ranked on the top among European countries and just behind US.

Germany and France are ranked as fifth and tenth of teenage pregnancy respectively.

Government is now making sex and relationship education as compulsory in primary school. one parent said that after all the kids are going to have sex, in this circumstance, it's better to teach them how to have sex safely, make them understand how big the issue is to be pregnant.

Compared with my culture

In western countries, people are not shy of talking about sex, they've got relationship in a young age. But in my country, things are very different, young teens are still prohibited to fall in a serious relationship in the mainstream.

In a way, it controls child pregnancy and I rarely hear that a kid conceive a baby.

It's a one of the good things from Asian country.
