A woman from Romania said she became the world’s youngest grandmother – at the age of 23.

 

Ridca Stanescu, who gave birth to her daughter Maria when she was just 12 years old, said she urged her daughter not to follow in her footsteps – but Maria gave birth to her son when she was just 11.

 

Now 25, Stanescu, said she wanted more for her daughter.

 

“I am happy to be a grandmother but I wished something else for Maria – and something else for me,†she said.

 

Stanescu said “marrying young†is a way of life in the Romanian gypsy culture. She was married at the age of 11.

 

“I did not try to stop my daughter getting married because this is the tradition, it's what happens,†she said.

 

The youngest British grandmother was an unnamed 26-year-old from Rotheram, Yorkshire, whose 12-year-old daughter gave birth in 1999.

Was any part of that raving in English?? For me, I'm so pleased that the 2.5 blokes will never be the same again! It could never go downhill, the only way is better!

Quite frankly, I am well and truly OVER Sheen-san!

 

If he's trying to p*ss off the world, he's going the right way about it. If he's trying to win friends, then he's definitely not "winning".

A three-year-old believed to be Britain's youngest alcoholic has been treated in hospital, it was revealed today.

The unnamed toddler, from the West Midlands, was given alcohol regularly for more than six months.

Experts say the child would have suffered terrible withdrawal symptoms including shakes and mood swings.

There are also fears the youngster may have brain damage.

 

It was among 13 children under the age of 12 to be diagnosed as an alcoholic by the Heart of England NHS Trust between 2008 and 2010.

The Trust treated 106 teenagers between 13 and 16 for alcoholism over the same two years. Among them, 74 were admitted to A&E for emergency treatment because of the effects of binge drinking.

A spokesman for the Trust said: 'We treat alcohol abuse very seriously and have specialist teams and experts on hand who are there to treat young patients with alcohol-related problems.

'This enables us to provide the best possible care for our patients.'

 

The revelation comes just weeks after a girl of eight from Dundee was identified as Britain's youngest alcoholic.

Nicolay Sorensen from Alcohol Concern said: 'To be diagnosed alcoholic, it's possible this child would have shown a physical dependency.

'They would have had to ingest enough to cause withdrawal symptoms. It is a horrifying case.'

Chris Sorek, chief executive of Drinkaware, said: 'Any child requiring hospital treatment for alcohol-related illness is a cause for great concern, not just because of the short-term risks but also long-term health problems such as brain development.'

Great stuff.

Wonder when he will find the time to perhaps confirm this one more time.

I hope that when he does, he will have a new haircut.

"Soccer stud David Beckham has his hands full these days with his brood of three boys, and with baby number four on the way with wife Victoria, things are just going to get busier. But Beckham made an important stop this week -- with his kids in tow -- at the Children's Hospital in Los Angeles."

Re: the SuperMoon (Lunar Perigee) this weekend - the Moon will be closer to Earth than it has been in 19 years. Expected to pass as close as 356,577 kms away (that's just over 27,800 kms closer than the ave. of 384,403 kms), the Moon should appear about 15% brighter and slightly bigger than usual. Let's hope for some good views of this Full Moon rising tonight..

 

Yea, it looks like the Full Moon technically occurs around 4:40am Sunday 20th March, but as it's not visible from Australian East Coast then the next best time will be as it rises in the East Sunday & Saturday evenings, by the looks.

 

There'll be a few fairly high tides the next few evenings as a result of it, but nothing extraordinary. There's guaranteed to be a few more ferals out tho!

VICTORIA BECKHAM may be eating for two but those cupcakes aren't all for her.

Preggers Posh shared the sweet treats with her three lads - BROOKLYN, 11, ROMEO, eight and five-year-old CRUZ - as they watched dad David play for LA Galaxy this weekend.


Cupcakes!

And she looked a little bored as the Californian team held New England Revolution to a 1-1 draw.


Awwwww.

At least she stayed warm and dry though.


Phew!
