The 12-year-old pregnant
South African girl, who made headlines days ago after she shared her photos on
social media with the caption ‘pregnant and proud’, has shared photos of her
baby daddy.
The baby daddy of the
12-year-old pregnant South African girl, is reportedly a 14-year-old boy who
lives in their neighbourhood. Here are loved up photos she shared below;
Last year, it was reported
that 1 000 teenage girls were pregnant in Erkhueni area of South Africa. One of
the girls was a grade 5 student – meaning a 11 or 12 year old girl is expecting
her first child. The general feeling of the DA is that young girls under the
age of 16 are being taken advantage of – a reason behind the shocking number of
them falling pregnant.
According to a report by
The Sowetan, the Ekurhuleni mayor, Mzwandile Masina, stated that one of the
main reasons young girls are falling pregnant is “the cult of blessers”. A
“blesser” is basically a sugar daddy, but maybe not more than 10 years older
than the girl he “blesses” with gifts and money.
When these girls fall
pregnant, majority of them do not return to school. The girls will then
struggle to provide for their child and build a future for herself.
