Well it depends what said 16 year olds parents have to say about the matter. She is still a minor and yes there can be alot of trouble if they do not approve. But parents approve its just a matter of age I would say as long as you are not having sex you should be fine. Dating fine - Sex could land him in jail for rape. You might want to check your state laws (this can be found online with a simple google search)
