What are the consequences for a 17 year old boy who is dating a 14 year old girl?

Answer 1

Well, aside from that being a little bit creepy, I'm pretty sure that there are no consequences. "Dating" could mean many things. If sex is involved, this will change when the boy turns 18. Then it will be considered statutory rape, even if both parties give consent. And, Rape = Jail time. I'm not sure how much, but that could probably be found out with a little research. So, if one of you is over 18 and the other isn't, don't do anything sexually. Casual dating is fine, I believe. dont worry but if the boy turns 18 slap his ass In the UK the age at which the law says that you can agree to have sex is 16.....In America each state will have a different law so the person would have to look at what the law says where they live. If you are dating and there is no sexual contact then that is fine, however, in the UK since the 2003 Sexual Offences Bill became law, all sexual acts not just penetrative sex became a criminal offense if at least one of the people concerned male or female is under 16.....so if your boy friend has any sexual contact with you.....he will be breaking the law, even if you agree to have sex with him, as you are aged 14..... the law says that he could spend up to two years in prison.....This may appear very unfair to you, however, the law was made to protect young people from abuse by people who are older than themselves, because unfortunately this does happen and is a problem all over the world. If you are in the States then you should search the net and find out what is the age of consent in relation to where you live.....because if you are having a sexual relationship the consequences could be very severe for your boyfriend as he would be charged with statutory rape the same as in the UK.....The only difference is that the penalty for statutory rape appears to be a lot more severe in America than it is in the UK....Armarna.
