Did you know that to date, the youngest female to ever give birth was a 5 year old Peruvian girl back in 1939? Check out this article.

Pretty scary stuff. She had been having regular periods since 3 years old. They never did find out who the father was.

Yeah I heard about that a while ago.

It's not the fact that she developed so early that bothers me, it's the fact that someone had sex with a child that young. Poor little girl.

They suspected the father, but nothing was confirmed.

It is. It's unfortunate the son has since passed away. I'm surprised he never demanded a paternity test or something. It's very disturbing. Before her there was a girl in Germany at the age of 6 that it happened to as well. Such a scary thought this is happening.
