QUOTE A MEXICAN girl aged nine has given birth to a girl of her own, local authorities and family members have said. "The girl was just over eight when she got pregnant. The father is a boy who is 17, but we have not found him, since he ran away," the mother of the girl, identified only as Dafne, told local officials in Jalisco state. "We are looking for the young man to get his story because she does not understand what has happened. This is a rape or child sex abuse case," said Jorge Villasenor with the state prosecutors' office. Read more: http://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/parenting...6#ixzz2KB4WExvH Poor girl.

I really hope the hospital keeps their word and support this poor girl and that she get s the help she desperately needs and that she can take care of herself and get some education and be able to support her daughter in the future. I hope the family helps her and does not abandon her.

Sick. Seventeen is an age where you know the difference between right and wrong.
