Alfie Patten, a new dad at the ripe old age of 13
Baby-faced Alfie, who is 13 but looks more like eight, became a father 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.
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."
Chantelle Steadman, 15, delivered baby Maisie Roxanne Monday night after a five-hour labor at hospital in Eastbourne, on the south coast of England. She was conceived during a single night of unprotected sex.
Alfie was a virgin and just 12 years old at the time.
The pair discovered Chantelle was expecting after she went to her doctor with a "really bad" stomach, she told the newspaper.
