13 and pregnant.....

I have pulled some schemes when I was younger but this was uncalled for. I could not imagine one of my children doing this and if I was one of the parents I would have gotten to the bottom of this. I can't believe that a child would make up such a story that she knew was a lie. There are other ways to get boys to notice you. This is realy sad.

I think i agree with you the boys will rather be scared than she thinks. she will loose all of them at this stage of immaturity.

gee... not so good... for bothe the girl and the boy, it's not even a joke. I agree with you the parents must correct this. It is their responsibility to look after their child and direct and redirect them to a better future.

Girls will be girls?? I think it definatly a cry for help-- Telling people that you;re pregnant at 13-- and these boys must have slept with her-- to even think she was telling the truth- so if it was my daughter telling kids at 13 she was pregnant and it could 1 of 2 boys-- I'd seriously have a problem with that- 13 year olds shouldn't be sexually active for start! and then with 2 boys- I'd have my thumb on her- She wouldn't go anywhere without me knowing-- and I'd have taken her to the doctors to see if it was true- I'm guessing the parents didn't know she was telling this lie?

i've heard about a similar situation in my school about four years ago... it's strange and sad i know... but there are children who think that by doing such things they will be seen in a different way (in the good sense). it's also true that parents should take such things into account and try to do something about it... after all their child needs attention, that's all.... there are,however, cases when children do this because of mental problems and here the solution would be medical attendance... but these are too rare situations. anyway, like you said, it's so sad to hear about such things.... too bad...

I believe some people lie to get attention, and that this can be an unhealthy thing when attempting to deal with one's own life. On the other hand this could of been worse -- the girl could have actually gotten pregnant in order to get more attention.

I had a girl do that when I was in school. She just made a huge fool of herself. Especially because back then, that just wasn't as acceptable as it is today. She said that she had an abortion at 8 months...it was crazy. I don't think anyone ever truly believed her. I know if it were my daughter, she would be severely punished and put in therapy right away. Parent's just aren't strict enough with their chilren now-a-days (me included).

You may kive near me, only our school did not blow it off. The girl is about 13, she is in 8th grade. she also told she was pregnant and it was all over school. The principal put the girl in in-school suspention for the rest of the year. I do not know how the parents reacted, but I feel the school did the right thing. The girl was creating a lot of problems for herself and others with this rumor. When I was in school there were several rumors that so and so was pregnant but it was never started by the person that it ws about! What are these kids thinking? Well if the parents thought it was no biggie than I guess we know that they nor the CHILD are thinking very much!

its a very pooor thinking to get attention of people ...pregnantcy is not a joke... thier parents shouldnot make sence ... they should stop them from doing search a thing...

Nowaday little boy and girl getting so crazy with love. 13 yr old just a good age for study not for love. And parent are careless with them child mind.....

Very interesting things.Girls always have so simple ideas,but i like her,a naive girl.

oh my..thats not good, she needs help. Parents must be guided their child and must monitor whats their doin in everyday life. Case like this is quite sensitive. Imagine she just take it that easily and even joke others people too..TOO BAD!

thegirl would not be getting the attention from her near ones .so she might have thought tohave attention by means of the same.

At thirteen she is a child. At this stage what they perceive is how they behave and what they relate. A psychological condition. Certainly not a very big deal and as far as the thirteen year old boy is concerened, they are smatter today.

Being pregnant is nothing to joke about, especailly at that age. I have a niecce who gave birth to my great niece a few days before her 14th birthday. It wasn't fun either she stayed sick most the time and was home schooled because she was a high risk pregnancy plus the kids at school were cruel especially the girls. It was something I hope she will never have to go through or pray that she never again goes through until she is older and married.

wow, really? well, too bad, she should not have done that in order to draw attention from others. that's not right. also, her parents could have done something about it, too. it was a negative action from their daughter and needs to be corrected. i can't see any reason why they neglected it.

that wasa bad thing for a girl to do.. Might be as you said she wanted the attention of her parents.. children who sont get enough love and attanetion in their house often end up doing things like this

13 year old ..pregnant doesnt sound nice.The case of this girl confessing herself pregnant is not joke..what kind of parents are they..iresponsible and they are to be blamed for the girls behaviour.I dont understand at the age of 13 how this girl could really think of all this..it time for her to study but rather thinking of all nonsense which will spoil the future. An incident happened some two years ago in a nearby school maintained by the government.A student of class 10 delivered a baby in the toilet and the news spread like a wild fire and rumours started spreading in.Its a school only for girls.Then the news came in that morning that the girl was having an affair with a boy and she told her friends in class that she was pregnant.She was only 15 at that time but she never showed any sign of pregnancy and attended classes.Her mother confessed to the media that she didnt know that her daughter was pregnant..i felt annoyed that how a mother cannot know about this.After that the girl never turned up to school.A child becoming a mother.

that girl is crazy, having done such an idiotic joke to gain attention. If you ask me its a sad cry for help

Teenager stage is the thougest stage i believe. This is the stage the we all want to be accepted. I feel sad for the girl situation. She is confused ang longing to be accepted in her school. Attention is a big issue for the girl i guess. She need to assured for the love of her family. And let her family assure her that she is being love for who she is.
