INNOCENT-eyed Alfie Patten spent his first night acting as a 13-year-old dad and declared: “It was easier than I thought.”

The four-footer — who looks no more than eight — said: “I know I’m young, but I plan to be a good dad.”

As he went on the PlayStation with 15-year-old girlfriend Chantelle Steadman, he added: “I think we’ll be good parents. I’ll have to work extra hard at school.”

This is one of the most popular stories in Korea at the moment according to Naver.com

I like the kid and I wish him the best of luck. He’s a media darling and I think he realizes that every move he makes is being scrutinized. I don’t know how he’ll deal with the stress. I guess Playstation fits the bill.
