A 10-year-old girl from Romania has given birth in southern Spain, officials in the region have said.
The girl gave birth to a daughter last week in the city of Jerez de la Frontera, said Andalucia's social affairs minister Micaela Navarro.
Officials are deciding whether the mother and her family can keep custody, Ms Navarro said.
The father of the baby is also believed to be a minor, aged 13, who is still in Romania, Spanish media have said.
"What we have to ensure is that both the mother, who in this case is a minor as well, and the baby are absolutely taken care of," said Ms Navarro.
"If they can be well cared for, they can stay with the family," she said.
The baby's grandmother, who is a Roma gypsy, was photographed in Spanish newspapers smiling outside the family's modest block of flats in the town of Lebrija, AFP reports.
Her 10-year-old daughter is reported to have moved to Spain from Romania just three weeks ago.
The woman, identified only as Olimpia, was quoted as saying that the mother was "very well, like the daughter, who is very well and very pretty".
According to the Andalucia daily, Diario de Jerez, which first reported the story, the grandmother could not understand the wide level of interest in the case as "this is the age we get married in Romania".
Woah. What?
This just blows my freaking mind, I didn't even know it was possible to give birth this young, let alone it being "normal"

Different strokes for different folks.
|
I've heard stories about girls in Africa who have babies at ten or even nine years old.
Edit: As a result of rape, though.

She claims 10 is a normal age for getting married in Romania? Can anyone confirm this?
|
The youngest mother ever was five years old or something like that. Was in south america (peru?) somewhere, dont remember all the details.

I doubt that its that common... but I'm sure it happens...
As for having custody? That's a totally different story... When she's 14, and starting high school, the baby will be walking and talking and about to enter kindergarten.

Sounds like a reality TV show! Oh wait, this isn't in America.

Yeah this is true. 5 years + 7 months to be exact.
|
I didnt think it was biologically impossible for a girl to become pregnant at that age. I know girls mature faster than guys but that's a little fast.
|
Romanian by nationality, not ethnicity. This kind of creepy stuff is normal for gypsies....
|
well, weirder things have happened (there's a wikipedia page about very young mothers, from the age of 5 and up). There even has been a person who was a granny on her 18th. It's still bizarre though.

How the hell did a 5 year old have a baby? Was it raped? what happened?

That means she became pregnant before she turned five. Ugh disturbing to say the least.

Maybe the baby was really premature.

You act like I know the whole story. Oblv someone fucked the poor baby but was it some kind of tradition to the indians of Peru or something? wtf?????

So disturbing.
I've seen documentaries on Romanian gypsies before but never saw anything like this. It just showed them committing crime, harassing people, having weird arranged marriages, scamming people at ATM's etc etc .. girls that young having babies... That's scary.
