I am the same age as Sue. I can remember being 13 and I got my first period at that age, not my first child. Being able to remember being 13 does not mean I’m now comfortable with a 13 yr old having sex with a man 4 years and 9 months older. He would have been 5 school years older. I have a daughter who is 13. This would be the equivalent of her in year 8 going out with someone in sixth form. I get that you find it hilarious and it’s your right to think of a child having sex as funny and a laugh, but perhaps this vulnerable young girl wouldn’t have gone on to continually have babies and nothing else, not even focus on those children past 14 months.I went to school between 2007-2012 and it was even normal then to be honest.
Makes me laugh all the comments saying he must be a pweirdo, have people actually heard themselves? He was 17 and she was 13, if people can think back to when they were that age, it was hardly a huge age gap and he was hardly a “man”, it’s not like he was 30, married with two kids and had a full time career for gods sake
when I was 14, my best friend had an 18 year old boyfriend, they had a long relationship and eventually lived together and nearly got married. When I was 17, I had 18 year old friends who were going out with 13/14 year olds, we met because we had mutual friends, nothing pervy about it, people need to get a grip
Also, does anyone remember that video published by the sausage roll mum who was harassed by them? Shocking really...she got a load of abuse because she said that they have a nanny as she lives around the corner from them and saw her...
He passed away a year after he was diagnosed but that year of ‘inconvenience’ (Sue Radford, 2019) full of treatments, travelling and stress was still worth it for the extra time we got with him. He filled it with love and smiles despite everything he was going through.How is your son now? That sounds like it was so tough on everyone.
Where’s your initial capital letter at the start of your sentence? Surely an English teacher would know that?!am an English teacher - can't help it! - am new to Tattle no idea about commenting either lol
She’s probably literally wetting herself. I’ve had a few babies and it’s bloody risky at times. 20 and you must just be trailing wee wherever you go.She couldn’t really be arsed with Archie in the toy shop could she? Her tone of voice was different with him, had it been one of the girls lining toys up she would have been wetting herself in excitement.
It definitely isn't normal, can you remember being 18.. Did you find 13 year old boys attractive? No? Didn't think so!I am the same age as Sue.

I also have a 19 year old son. If at 17 he had been having sex with a 13 yr old, I would not have laughed at how normal this all was, I would have been seriously concerned.
There is a huge difference between a man of 18 and a girl of 13 no matter how much you want to trivialise it.
For half her pregnancy Sue was 13 and Noel 18. It’s gross. He is gross, and that is not normal.
