Chineese 9 Year Old Gives Birth To 6 Pound Baby Boy.

This is just insane. How young are girls going through puberty these days. And how does a nine year olds body handle pregnancy and birth.

In northeast China last Sunday, a 9-year-old girl gave birth to a healthy 6-pound baby boy. The identity of the father has not yet been released, although the police have reportedly been contacted.

According to news.com.au in Australia, the baby was delivered by cesarean section at a Changchun hospital, and both the mom and newborn are doing well.

In the province, sex with a child under the age of 14 brings an automatic rape conviction and a lengthy jail sentence.
A legal expert told the paper that women under the age of 14 do not have sexual rights - 'so any argument of being consensual as a defence is completely untenable,' he said.

Sadly, she is not the youngest girl to deliver a baby, according to other published reports. Two girls in Peru, ages 5 and 8, are both on record as giving birth to children of their own.

How can a 5 year old at all??

man some places I just do not ever want to know about...

Nevermind. Someone beat me to it.

Bad enough a 9 year old is having a baby but I was at least hoping to hear the father is 11 or 12 at the most.....

News like this always makes my stomach churn whenever I try to avoid reading it, but end up clicking on it anyway.

I'm hoping the father isn't some disgusting paedophile man, coz that'd just make this story even worse..Though I hope it isn't..it's most likely the case, unfortunately.

5 years old gave a child?! How's that even physically possible, christ.

can you imagine that?

when the 5year old mother turns 20

her child will be 15 years old!

holy crap, when she is 35 her child will be 30, they could practically be siblings

Hitting puberty and being capable of getting pregnant at 9 isn't unusual by any means, normal puberty can start around 7 or 8 for girls and sometimes 9 years for boys. Never been any different since we lived in caves to my knowledge.
Unfortunately there are rarer cases of toddlers and very small children hitting whats called precocious puberty. Most cases it's brought on by an underlying condition such as a tumor or in boys it can be hereditary.

I wont go into the morality of 5 & 9 year olds having babies in this day and age though, I'd rather not dwell on that before breakfast.
