Just another incident of dumb kids doing dumb things.

I know it's technically not paedophilia but the thought of a 15 year old with an 11 year old kinda creeps me out. I know it's only 4 years, but at that age that's quite a difference. Shudder.

 

[Tonythion]

Oh wow, that's haaaah I have nothing to say to that other than fucking eww little kids going at it.

...how in the?
What the...?
Guuuh?

Dear Raptor-Jebus.

I can only say: Gwah?

It does take away from this argument that minors are not sexual beings which is put out lots of places as the reason for the consent laws being where they are. I am in no way advocating for changes or the idea that older people with minors is anything but wrong. It just takes a bit of the air out if that argument when minors are obviously not as sexless as people like to think. Just saying...

I'm not quite sure why the mother isn't being charged with statutory rape, or is 11 & 15 actually legal in the UK?

Other than that, its a "so what" story.

Them both being minors means that Romeo and Juliette exceptions come into force. The same thing that stops a 16 year old (above UK age of consent) being in trouble for being intimate with his week younger 15 year old (normally illegal) girlfriend. But 15 to 11 is a big gap...

Ah, but I lost hope in humanity. Weren't expecting that, were ya?

Seriously, though - this is sad. Let's hope someone responsible takes care of the child once it's born.

And let's also hope that this kid gets a few slaps on his face for being a little ****.

Aren't hope and faith essentially the same thing?

The story is from 1997 last time he was in the uk press was this which is 2009, so jails probably better than a few slaps

Turns our the boy was a bit of a scummer, the girl had respect from me just for keeping the baby so im glad she's doing well.

Yeah. What the hell is up with that. Ran out of sensational stuff to shock people with?
Just under the headlines it reads Clare Garner Tuesday 19 August 1997.

16 is age of consent. but women can't statutorily rape guys here, because fuck gender equality.

Our laws around underage sex have a bit of lee-way in them if they are both minors, it's only when one of them is 18 or older that criminal charges become compulsory.
