WOW!!…Can anyone say pedophile?! That poor little girl…seriously my jaw is on the floor. I understand cultures are different but wow, that guy should be in prison awaiting the death sentence.

There doing good Job at the age 11,14 or 15 what ever might be , but really it a good thing . If a boy or girl who is operating the Windos XP (or ) 2007 or Computer programe at the age 5 you people appriciated , why not this , people should not interfier with other person mater , who r u to say put in life sentence . they know what to do or what not to do .

to jessikah ummm how exactly do you know she was raped?? maybe she wanted it?

what a naughty girl wanting sex at age 11.

Jessikah, you, mj, and Travis Smith are without a doubt the most ignorant, closed-minded people I have ever encountered, and I can honestly say that I feel the world would be better off without your special brand of stupidity.

The 11 year old girl was not raped. She and the 19 year old had sex. Together. Because it was legal to do so. Why you can’t get that through your head and feel you must impose YOUR values on a completely different society is beyond me. Here in the US (I assume that’s where you are from) 11 year old girls are having sex before, after, and during school every day! You can’t say that their decision to do so is any less informed than a 20-year old woman’s,. because I’m pretty sure they all learned in sex ed class (not to mention it’s common sense) that they can and will get pregnant if they don’t use protection.

Goddamn you people are dumb.

Hey Matt!! Please show to all of us your APA ID Member Card (“American Pedophile Association”)…. Can’t wait to see it and put you on jail….

How is possible to anynone to even think as good thing when children (11 years old still childhood) had sex and get pregnant…. Only APA members could think like that….

By the way, APA is not a real, is sarcasm, in case you try to contact them!!!!

Hey idiots, did I SAY it was a good thing? Why the fuck are you calling me a pedophile when all I did was re-iterated the facts stated squarely in the article: That this happened in Bulgaria, where it’s normal. Call me names all you want, but when all is said and done there is a smiling girl in that photo who seems happy that she has a baby. NOWHERE in the article did it say she was abused. So both of you get off your moral high-horses and GROW UP.

Ok Matt, sorry about that….

Maybe u right. Maybe we misinterpreted your words. Maybe is common for people far away USA to let children play with adults. Maybe it is common that girl in fact never heard about condoms and preventive measures. Maybe the 19 yrs old husband like young girls (too much younger)…. I like to know if in eleven years when her child got pregnant by a horny prick like himself, he would realized what he did……
Here in Peru, bullfight is part of the culture. It is cruel and promotes brutality, but it is considered “culture”, however, that does not make it better or acceptable……

do You have daugthers…? hope not.

In case you have, why dont you introduce with your partners in Bulgaria, maybe you would be grand father soon….

Actually this happens all the time (girls having babies at such early ages) among the gipsy communities in Romania. They actually get married at such ages; their parents decide who marries who.

wow i am so glad i don’t live in the USA. i have some values that are not based on selfishness how the world is according to USA is how it should be for every one, oh piss off . Get your own shit together in your own country before telling others how to run their own lives if it works for them and does not harm anyone, so be it, i suppose your history is not the same as other countries a few years back it was the sign of woman hood her first period she has become a woman she can now marry and bare children some thing like that. as her life span maybe be shorter than yours as her life style is poorer than your countries, no hospitals etc . no health care and running water she maybe lucky to live to the good old age of 40 if she is lucky and her kids may survive until it is a few years old wow but what the hell don’t have kids because it might offend some western liberal on a crusade to fix the world with wars. lies and debt, so mind your own business live your life and help others not criticize them for trying to survive this mess we all live in

for gipsy girls in that area (eastern europe) 9-13 years for being “married” is normal and most of them in poor conditions do have kids at 12-13, only the richer families can afford to keep them home, but still if a gipsy girl is not married at 16, or at least engaged she will probably never get a gipsy spouse. talking about families with 5 kids each in one one of the girls had this issue, and got married at about 30 with another national guy, in the other family there is also one who is almost 30 not married, and won’t be with another gipsy for sure

Look, I do not think this is a good situation. I don’t think having a child at age 11 is a good idea by any stretch of the imagination. However, please stop being so nasty to Matt. He has a good point; this short snippet of the story is not telling the full facts. The girl DID lie to the boy and say she was 15 (which is believable, from her appearance). This is NOT illegal in Bulgaria where the age of consent is indeed set at 14. Also, the pair are now married with the 19 yo husband stating his desire to care for his wife and daughter and worried he won’t be able to because of the prospect of jail.

They both may have made some stupid decisions, but this is not rape. Keep that term for situations that actually warrant it.

its insane for a 11 year to be a mother. From the picture above, she’s excited and
doesn’t seem to have to realize how to move forward. its seems her parents have to look after their grand child along with their child. As for the 19 year old guy, atleast some punishment must be given??????????

if u look at this another way, some times in certain societies, girls being married off at the peak of their fertility is a social responsibility for them. The peak of fertility is usually about 14, but not always the case, it really depends on the physical maturity of the girl. As I see, the girl certainly looks ‘ripe’. I don’t really know about their culture, but for my grandma’s era, it was normal to be married off to have children as young as 12 or 13, sometimes it isn’t about stupid parents or what, but for them marrying off their daughters early is a sign of good planning for her future in her society back then.

The girl and boy may be naive and all, but it is both consensual. Indeed true that under 18 will be considered rape or what… but some laws is that if both gets married with parental consent before the child registers (as in born and registered as citizen), they will not be charged because they can give birth once they are legally married no matter the age. And because you can’t really blame the boy alone, it is best they got married and not get punished at all.

Seriously, who are we to judge if they are stupid, or if their parents are dumb, or whatever.
She seems happy, whether for now or not, it is not our problem. Just like we should not make noise about other social or religious practices, we shouldn’t judge them this badly.

Matt is completly and utterly correct.

@virat: fuck off and die a dog’s death in your hell hole. wtf is wrong with you?! Can’t you even look at a girl (in this case a kid) without screaming S-E-X in your head? You muthafuckin’ bastard

yes u r right ophelia

to vikki & ophelia  iam just lieng sorry idont know more inglish. soryy . i was want to see ur  feeling soryy again

that is sick but it happens all the time. i dont know who is at fault but at lest he owned up to the fact that he got her pregnant. he could have said it wasnt his and left her on her own. but the thing is some parents arent telling there kids about sex. it could be because their embarrassed or because they think that they dont have to right now. when i was in middle school one of my friends told me that a girl had sex when she was11 and i didnt believe her. i asked the girl and she said yeah she had sex. she even seemed proud. i was shocked an 11 year old girl!! and guess what I LIVE IN THE USA. it can happen anywhere so you people who think “oh that doesnt happen in the us THINK AGAIN!!

Adults are weird. And people say my generation’s the one that’s going to run the world straight into the ground! I can only assume you guys are fully grown adults, and yet here you are arguing about something that has no effect on you what so ever! (With appalling spelling and grammar, by the way.) Yes, the girl was really young, yes, it is interesting. Why can’t people just leave it at that, without resorting to name calling and petty insults? Seriously, grow the hell up.

i want to fuck her once. what a sexy she is.mmmmmmmmmmmm

as an American though….I agree it’s not normal and def wouldn’t want my 11 year old daughter having a kid. It would never happen because she would be in a girl school if the case was that extreme 

hmm thats crazy, i dont know that much about child bearing but an 11 year old pushing out a baby must have been difficult! They didnt know about condoms so there probably wasn’t any epideral either. WHOA she’s like a super girl

grrrrr dang it I misspelled the word but, probably shouldnt be typing at 5 am :}

it should have said BUT NOT MY COUNTRY just to clarify

the age of consent varies worldwide. in america or usa as it is known, only a few states recognize 18 as the legal age to have sex, other states recognize lower age bar.  we see these cases happening in south american nations also, in mexico for instance it is not that uncommon seeing young girls getting pregnant. honduras, guatemala, el salvador and other countries below it have shown this problem also. arab/muslim nations also have a similar problem, with iran and afghanistan showing very serious problems of having young girls married to adult males, often by force and against the girl’s knowledge and consent. i think we should consider this into the formula of morality when trying to understand what is right or wrong with child pregnancies. 11 years is low, and biologically it isn’t impossible. but morally speaking this age may be violating some kind of human principle that is connected with abuse, mainly because one is likely to think that the female child is just too young to understand what she does in having sex with an older partner. modern societies have developed advanced law philosophies that guide their conduct toward a high minimum age bar. but don’t go to far, in the 1990s in usa there was an increase of teen pregnancies, and i think that each nation around the world experiences this situation every year. 

what keeps humans apart from the rest of the animals in this world is their ability to reason and to judge according to their apprehension of moral and ethical and logical values. moral human intelligence provides a means by which people can determine exactly what is wrong with a particular behavior and how it should be performed or avoided in the future. there are still child marriages held in india, and in old age china arranged marriages was quite common; and let us not forget the fact that chinese emperors loved young concubines.

this is not to say that a child age 11 ought to be legally allowed by government to perform sex freely. but there is nothing that is going to stop an 11 year old girl (young woman depending on how one sees things in society) from having her sex experience. a few years ago a report showed that teens in usa were having sex as early as 13 and that the number may be lower in the near future. i personally believe that most teens have sex experience (although not necessarily penetration) around 13, so there’s the likelihood that some teens may have their sex experience at an early age, say 12 or even 11, depending on the circumstances of the case.

is this case rape? by law it may be considered rape, but again that depends on the law of the particular nation considered. if the female lied about her age it still does not absolve the male partner from his legal obligation to avoid that sexual conduct with someone who may look or who actually looks younger than the age she claims to be. i think there’s a burden on the males in most cases to secure themselves in cases where the female may actually be “legally protected against sex”. and i believe that many males use their “i did not know she was a minor” excuse as a defense against rape accusation and conviction.

very well, i have provided some thoughts on the matter

i hope i have been of service

happiness
