13-year-old becomes dad!
A baby-faced boy from Eastbourne has become a dad at 13.
Alfie Patten is dad to 4-day-old Maisie Roxanne, after his 15-year-old girlfriend, Chantelle gave birth. Alfie, who lives with his mother in Eastbourne, was 12 when Maisie was conceived.
'I thought it would be good to have a baby,' 4ft tall Alfie told The Sun newspaper. 'I didn't think about how we would afford it. I don't really get pocket money but my dad sometimes gives me £10.'
The couple are now living with Chantelle's mum, dad and five brothers in Eastbourne.
