None of actually knew that Alfie was not the father, although several suspected it.

We knew that it was biologically impossible for a pre pubescent boy to father a child.
veritas while what you say is true-the "encouragment" bit comes from tablods perpetually promoting the idea that money can be made from sex-illegal or not.

I'm not sure it sank into the minds of the vast general public that the Alfie tale was nixed. (and I agree with Locked Out-I'd seriously be wary of people who buy newspapers to read these tales, let alone those who profit from them)

While the Alfie debacle floundered this time, there will be another and another media outlet willing to take a chance. Why wouldn't they ? It's not as though they will be punished.

And again today-a 14 year old girl in the USA has been charged with producing and distributing child pornography- for posting nude phots of herself on her MySpace site.

Unwise of her but to drag her through the courts is a shocking and brutal case of abuse in itself. Those partciating in prosecuting should be strung up from lampposts.They are evil.

And yet MySpace and all the social networking sites are probably are responsible for most of the grief that happen on the net.

(The fact that MySpace-purveyors of porn that encourages members to post nude pics of themselves, and The Sun ,purveyors of soft porn , are both owner by R.Mrdoch is purely coincidental.)
Dominic Dee I caught an edition of an American talk show where the guest was a young boy who claimed he'd been having sex since he was seven, "Because it feels good." They also brought on his young girlfriend. I remember thinking, as I gawped, that this would not be allowed in the UK. I don't know how old the show was because I'm sure they repeat them often. I think it was Sally Jessy Rafael.

Nothing to do with Alfie, of course, but this dicussion reminded me of it.
Blackit Well said JK. 14 year old girls facing jail in America for posting nude pics, 12 year old boys having their unfortunate lives exploited by child abusing newspapers here. Meanwhile, daytime chat shows on both sides of the Atlantic regularly exploit the emotional problems of young teenagers for national tea time entertainment and the morality of it all is never even guestioned. And I guess taking on Oprah Winfrey or Rupert Murdoch isn't really such a fat profit earner for the NSPCC and the other supposed 'child protection' charities.

This world sickens me sometimes.
Emma Bee I still don't see how they are encouraging others to break the law. Kids have been having sex for centuries. If you mean others might want to sell their story, then I think that's also unlikely because a) it's already been done and so won't have any "shock" value, and b) this one has badly backfired for everyone except the media who have profited by it. There was also the court order which brought an end to the main coverage.
