KateF I am sitting on the fence, arguing with myself. It is not true that a twelve year old cannot make herself up to look nineteen, however, what about the development of hair on the body, unless she pretends to have had a Brazilian. My great niece, is not twelve until end of July, she is mentally at the right age, however she is 5’5” tall, lovely to look at with long blonde hair. When I saw her dressed for her School disco (no boyfriends on the horizon, she is still ‘young’) she could have easily passed for a teenager, nineteen would have been a stretch, but then she does not wear make up or a lot of it yet. Our assumption is that a twenty seven year old man would be a ‘bit’ more worldly wise perhaps? Certainly someone who is trawling for sex on the Internet, while not all that bright, might not be expecting a twelve year old brat to be posting on it. My heart greaves for a child with her childhood lost. My granddaughters and great nieces with that age range still go to the Panto, Father Christmas train rides, half price sweets at Wilkos. This poor lass, and many more like her, who wouldn’t not give me a thank you for saying that, has long lost the pleasure of being a young child. The trouble with being long retired, one has too much time to pontificate.
