Can a 17-year-old girl get into trouble for dating a 15-year-old boy in Indiana?
Dating is not what gets someone in trouble when one is underage, its having sex with them. Dating is going to the movies and doing things that dont involve sex. Dating, no, having a physical relationship, yes. The legal age of consent in Indiana is 16. Dating that involves no sex. No you cant get in trouble. It could lead to trouble. Dating is not a problem (at least not in the USA), as long as no impropriety is commited. ===ANOTHER ANSWER=== AS OTHER answers have said, just dating (going out together) is not a problem, but remember, statuatory rape is NOT just about guys who are OF AGE having sex with girls who are UNDERAGE.. It pertains to girls who of age (legally able to give consent) and underage guys who are not of age (legally able to give consent). So before things go further, if they haven't already, think about the consequences of your actions. Statuatory rape is not necessarily forced sex, but is when an underage person consents to sex with an older person. The difference is that legally, the underage person is not LEGALLY able to give consent, even if they want to. Hope this helps answer your question.
Can my parent give consent if I am a minor who cannot give consent?
There are some very specific things---in some states--where parental consent is not needed. In most situations, though, a parent is required to give consent when a minor legally cannot give his / her own consent.
Does a parent have to have custody to consent to their underage child's marriage?
No, You don't have to have custody of your child to consent to the marriage. You either have to be parent which you are or the gurdian. You are still your child's parent regardless of weather you have custody or not. You could also call to the Clerk of Courts and ask them if this will make you feel comfortable.AnswerIt depends on the laws of your state. But in many states (and for all I know it could be 'most' or 'all' states), a non-custodial parent alone cannot give permission for a minor to get married.

I don't think that the fact they have warrants will affect this at all regardless of a warrant when your a parent of a minor you stil can give or not give consent over what your child does hope this helps, Good Luck and God Bless!!! * If both parents have custodial rights then both must give consent for the minor to marry. FYI, any person who has outstanding warrants is considered a fugitive and is subject to arrest and incarceration at any given time.
