A terrible thing to happen to a 12-year-old girl and I hope the ‘teens’ responsible will be punished more harshly in France than they would here.
But I have to ask, how and why is it possible for a 12-year-old-girl to have a ‘former boyfriend’?

The age in which tweens develop romantic interests in other people varies tremendously from child to child. Some kids may start expressing interest in having a boyfriend or girlfriend as early as age 10 while others are 12 or 13 before they show any interest.
