| Britain's youngest mom speaks out |
英最年輕媽媽首度開腔 |
| Kathleen Moss, 25, spoke for the first time about becoming England's youngest mother in 1998 to The Sunday Mirror. It started amid public outrage. But it has become a heartwarming story of motherly love and devotion. At the age of 12, Moss was pregnant. She was about to become the country's youngest mother...and she was a shocking symbol, they said, of a society where morals had collapsed. Today Moss sits beside her daughter, Georgia, who has just celebrated her own 12th birthday, and says: "I want so much more for her than I had. I look at her and can't believe I was her age when I gave birth to her. I see she is still just a child -- and I am determined she will have the childhood that I never had." |
25歲母親凱思琳·莫斯接受了英國《星期日鏡報》的采訪，首次披露了她1998年成為英國最年輕“少女媽媽”的前因后果。她的事件在一開始令公眾的憤慨，但后來卻成為關于母愛與奉獻的感人故事。莫斯12歲時懷孕，成為英國史上最年輕的“少女媽媽”，這件事當時震驚了整個英國，許多人認為英國的社會道德已經徹底崩潰。在女兒喬治婭過完12歲生日后，莫斯和女兒坐在一起講述了她的故事。莫斯說：“我希望她可以過得比我好。我看著她時，真不敢相信我竟然在她這個年齡時就生下了她。我覺得她還是個小女孩，我要給她我從沒有過的童年記憶。” |
