Can a 8 year old date a 11 year old?

Answer 1

Yes you can date with parental consent but socially it would be odd for on lookers since it is a huge age difference but that is their opinion. As long as you do not engage in sexual activity until the 11 year has reached age of consent in your state. It varies from 16-18.

The 17yo can be a pedophile considering he feels romantically and sexually attracted to a prepubescent child. If the parent would allow this the CPS would very likely take interest in this.

Answer 2

No,a 11 year old shouldn't date in general. If a person really loves you, he would wait until you're old enough.

Some may argue: "I won't commit fornication, I'm a Christian." We know that sex before marriage is wrong, but when you're all alone with a person to who you are attracted too, the sexual drive can lead you to wrong doing. Even the famous King David- a very faithful man of God- allowed himself to give in to the pressure (1 Sam. 13:14; 2 Sam. 11:1-4). When people are in their teens, people go through a phase called "the bloom of youth". That is a period of time when sexual feelings and romantic emotions first become strong. By waiting until you're past the bloom of youth (on average: 18-25), you can ward off the pitfall.

Another thing to consider is the purpose of dating. Dating is an honorable purpose of determining whether or not a couple should get married. Granted, some of your friends may take a casual view of dating. Some may date just to have fun and boost their self-esteem. However, dating with no attention of getting married is like acting like a child who plays with a new toy and then discards it. Clearly, when you're dating someone, you are affecting the other person's feelings. So make sure your intentions are good.

Waiting to date will give you more freedom to rejoice in your youth. In contrast, if you focus on the person you like to long, you set yourself for heartache. Use this period of time to learn how to cultivate and maintain friendships. Later, if you choose to date, you will have a better idea of who will be your partner.

Answer 3

NO. The 11 year old is a minor and a 28 year old dating a person that young gets them one thing an arrest. That is considered sexual abuse and is illegal. This person would go to prison, loose their job, and be labeled as a sexual predator for the rest of their life.

Answer 4

There are no laws against dating but any parent that let an adult who have a romantic interest in their 8yo will probably loose custody since that 20yo would be a pedophile. So no.

Answer 6
