Notes A memoir from the woman who became Britains youngest mum, at the age of 12. Growing up in the deprived area of West Lothian, Scotland, drink and drugs were a substitute for an education and a caring family for Tressa. At first she claimed the father of her child was an on-off boyfriend, but later it emerged that her brother had repeatedly raped her and was the father. Now shes living happily with a young mechanic, and is determined to recover her daughter from adoption.
