Yes. They have every right to protect their child until that child turns 18. The boyfriend has no business fooling around with a minor, he can go to jail for statitory rape. The child should end this relationship immediately.

Sure.. Restraining orders aren't s about consent, but you do need to have a reasonable case, because most often you go before a judge and present your case and the judge determines whether or not you have a good enough reason for a restraining order.

That would depend on the court. If I understand the question correctly... you are asking if you could go to court and get a restraining order against another person. That is allowed with proof that they are hindering your ability to live a normal life.

Regardless of age, you may have the right but it is unfortunately up to a very volatile court to decide.

Your parents have the right to determine who you are and are not allowed to spend time with, so if they don't want him spending time with you, but he's ignored that and is doing it anyway then yes, they get a restraining order (no matter what his age is)

It is going to depend upon the state that they are in, but in general I would say no. The age of majority in most states is considered to be 18 and they are both that age or older.

Yes, if the 16 year old is a physical or psychological threat to the 17 year old (stalking, threatening...) and if said 17 year old testifies against the 16 year old to legitimize the claims.


Can parents press charges on a 19 year old for seeing a 16 year old in South Carolina?

No, because the legal age of consent for sex is 16. If a 15 year old, for example, was having sex with a 19 year old, then you could press charges. If the 16 year old wants no contact with the 19 year old yet that older person refuses, then you can look into a restraining order.


Can the parents of a 16 year old daughter get a restraining order on a 19-20 year old male?

You would have to prove that the boy was a danger or threat. It is unlikely that his age alone would be sufficient, and if you were successful in getting a restraining order, your daughter could also be legally punished if she violated it. A court isn't a replacement for parenting.
