The Tuesday Twat(s)

No. 63. The mother of Britain's youngest mother.

It's been all over the papers this story - a twelve year old girl is about to give birth to a child fathered by a fifteen year old when she was only eleven - after a drunken night out. It would be funny if it wasn't so desperately sad.

Quite rightly, the fifteen year old has been charged with statuatory rape, despite it apparently being consensual (in a tragic coincidence an eleven year old raped by a 31 year old has also given birth recently). Needless to say, his defense team will trot out all of the usual excuses "He's emotionally immature for his age", "She's a too-wise for her years little slut" etc etc. But we all know that those excuses will be bullshit. He's fifteen - therefore he shouldn't be fucking eleven year olds. Comprende?

However, what I want to know is why isn't her mother standing next to him in the dock? She claims to be "proud" of her daughter for deciding to keep the baby. But more importantly, she pretty much let her daughter get into this situation. The girl claims to have been smoking up to 20 fags a day since nine (and still hasn't quit) and drinking since ten and conception occured after a drunken night out. You'll all be pleased to hear that she has since stopped drinking.

Regardless of her mother's inevitable protestations to the contrary - she let her daughter do these things. First, where does a nine year old get a fiver a day for 20 cigarettes, without her mum knowing about it? Second, how does a ten year old get pissed without her mum knowing (I found it hard enough to get pissed at seventeen without my parents knowing - thank god for the Boy Scouts!)
There are two possible answers:
1) her Mum did know and didn't give a fuck
2) her mum just didn't give a fuck.

In either case, her mother is pretty much directly responsible for her daughter's predicament. The sooner that woman is banged up and all of her kids removed the better.
