Girl, 12, to be youngest mother

A TEENAGE boy has been charged with rape after it emerged a 11-year-old Scottish girl had become pregnant.

The 15-year-old is scheduled to appear again on July 10 at Edinburgh sheriff court having already made a previous appearance.

It emerged that a West Lothian girl, now aged 12, is set to break the record for being Britain’s youngest mother. She told a national newspaper she is “really excited” about having a child after losing her virginity at 11 to a boy aged 15.
