What if your boyfriend is 17 and you are 14 going to turn 15 in a month Will he get arrested by the police even though you and your family consent the relationship?

Well you should not be having a sexual relationship at your age and if you are not then there is nothing to worry about. If you are then yes he can be arrested and charged with statutory rape. Your parents would also be in trouble if they gave consent to this. Parents are supposed to be responsible for their children and keep them from harm and wrong doing.


If a person is over the age of consent and dates a person under the age of consent can that person over the age of consent get in legal trouble even if they don't have sex?

Dating is not regulated by law. If your parents allow you to date, then, if you are not having sex, there is no law broken.

How many parental figures do you need for consent of an underage relationship in Florida?

Any of the parents can get a restraining order against their child's love interest so both would be good. This does not apply when it comes to sex though where you have to follow the age of consent law in your state. A parent can never consent to their minor having sex if it is illegal..


Can a 24 year old male get in trouble for having a baby with a 17 year old female if her parents know about it and are fine with it in Minnesota?

The age of consent is 16 in Minnesota so it was not illegal. Her parents can never give consent to sex, the law is what matters. As long as the parents are in agreement with the relationship I would say that you are okay. Unless the state of Minnesota or possibly children services deems the parents unfit and not acting in the best interest of the child. But 17 is so close to 18 it would seem silly since before any real action can take place the minor would be an adult.


Im underage and myboyfriend is 20 can he get in trouble if my parents no?

He can. It depends on how your parents react to him. If they think it's bad then they can call the police. But he will not get in trouble unless you are having sex with him.


I would like to adopt my stepchild do i need her father's permission he has no parental rights to her?

Not necessarily, however having the biological parents consent to the adoption makes the process much easier and faster. And having no parents rights is not the same thing as giving his consent. With or without his consent, however the adoption process is possible.


Is the only way a nineteen year old can get in trouble for dating a fifteen year old is if the parents say something?

No, if you have sex that would be illegal. I don't recommend it. You're over 18, that makes it illegal for you to have sex with anyone under 18. You only need to worry if you intend on having a sexual relationship with her before she reaches the age of consent. Dating is not a crime. The parents are only one way you can get in trouble but there are other ways also so make sure you do nothing to cause any concern.

If you're 20 and dating a 17-year-old will you get in trouble for being with her?

If by "being with her" you mean simply being in her company (assuming you are not providing her with alcohol, drugs, etc.), then no, you would not get into trouble for being with her. If by "being with her" you are referring to a sexual relationship, then it would depend on which state you were in. There is no federal law governing the "Age of Consent," the age at which a person may legally engage in a sexual relationship. However, each state has its own laws governing the Age of Consent and in the US they generally range from 16 to 18 years old. Under some circumstances (such as having parental consent), some states have lower Ages of Consent. In Canada, the Age of Consent is 14 years old.
