my 18 year old son is dating a 15 year old girl.?

i hate older guys who prey on younger girls. and girls who like older guys. its bad because im 15 and most of the 15 year old girls like older guys. what are we left with? 12 year olds? nah i think you should go with people your own age,

buuut

i think you should try and convince your son to get a girl his own age. you know his going to try and pull moves on her. do you want your son trying to have sex with a 15 year old?

Probably not. 15 year olds are usually in 9th/10th grade and just worrying about starting high school, most of them haven't found out who they are yet. 18 year olds are either in college, or thinking about a college. It may be only 3 years apart, but that is a huge difference when you are a teenager. 18 year olds and 15 year olds don't have much in common. They might have similar interests, but they are in different stages of their lives, and worry about different things. BQ: No... why would I change my mind because it was the other way around? I would not approve of my 15 year old son dating an 18 year old girl. I would not approve of my 15 year old daughter dating an 18 year old boy. I would not approve of my 15 year son dating an 18 year old boy. And I would not approve of my 15 year old daughter dating an 18 year old girl. It does not make a difference. Anyway, I say "probably not", but I won't say "no". I might change my view on it when I am parent, and I might have a very mature child. But right now that age difference makes me feel uncomfortable. I have many friends who are 18, and I can't imagine why any one of them would want to be with a 15 year old. We are all in college so it would be strange to want to be with a 15 year old. But if my kid really, really liked the person, and I knew them, I might consider it.

It all depends on if you are willing to face the fact that doing so is probably going to get your son in trouble as well. If they are sexually active, your son could face statutory rape charges (it would not matter if it was consensual or not because most state and federal laws don't recognize that a minor under the age of 16 can give consent). Which let's face it, they are horny teens so they are probably having some form of physical relationship. And yeah, like the earlier post states, being convicted of statutory rape will brand him as a sex offender, plus it could mean jail time. This will screw him over later in life, as many employers probably won't take the time to understand the circumstances. Sure they are both still in high school, but unfortunately for your son, because he is no longer a minor he has to face the fact that being adult comes with adult consequences. By the way the age of consent in Illinois is 17.

I would advise you against making any phone calls regarding this. Chances are, this will only make your son upset/angry. Maybe you can sit him down for a calm discussion about this. Make sure to convey to him that you are not forbidding him from doing anything, because he is an adult and can make his own decisions, but that you are worried that he doesn't realize what the consequences of his actions may be (and obviously go into detail on said possible consequences, etc.). I would say that the most important thing for you to stress is that it is his choice, but that you care about him and are trying to help. It is definitely a difficult situation... I hope everything turns out alright!

It doesn't matter if he is an adult or not.. do what ever u can to prevent this he could wake up as a sex offender.. I'm not sure the laws in your state but you need to find out... in Colorado 15 is the age of concent as long as the male is 10 years older or less so a 15 year old could be with a 24 year old, but that is NOT the case in all states in some states this is ILLEGAL, if its illegal in your state do what ever you can to prevent this, burn his clothes, send him to another country, take his care, call his boss and get him fired!! Do anything you can... I know this sounds crazy but this could ruin his ENTIRE LIFE!!

First off, he is an adult. Second, talk with the girls mother, and don't call DCFS on her. Don't break their love, please, that is Absolutely the WORST thing a parent can do. If the girls mother is okay with it, then, I am sure everything will be fine! Btw, you don't need the DCFS, solve your problems on your own.

Btw, it's better to talk to the mother, and see what all their thoughts are before you do anything...

If you are worried about the illigeal thing, sign papers with the girl AND the mother.

That's against the law.

i would!
