  • In New York once you hit 13 years old you can have sex with someone within 4 years of that...I don't know if it is only measured in years or if this fellow is 4 years 2 days older but still 17 if that is a crime. New York Age of Consent Laws Posted by Tamara The age of consent in New York is 17 for both men and women in heterosexual and homosexual relationships. This is the age at which a person can legally consent to have sex with an adult. Under the complex New York age of consent laws, it is legal for an individual between 13 and 16 to consent to a sexual relationship with someone who is less than 4 years older. So, a 15-year-old girl may consent to sex with her 17-year-old boyfriend, but not her 53-year-old minister. In general, a different standard applies when the older person is in a position of authority over the younger one, as a teacher, employer, coach or pastor is. In those cases, the age of consent may be 18 or even 21 years old. The crime of third-degree rape occurs under the New York age of consent laws when someone aged 21 or older has sexual intercourse with a person under the age of 17. The sentence for this crime is up to 4 years in prison. Second-degree rape involves intercourse between someone aged 18 or older and someone under the age of 15. The fact that the offender was less than four years older than the victim at the time of the act is an affirmative defense. If convicted, the penalty for this crime is up to 7 years in jail. First-degree rape involves sexual intercourse with someone under the age 11, regardless of the age of the offender. It may also involve sexual intercourse with someone under the age of 13 if the offender is over the age of 18. The sentence for this crime is 5 to 25 years in the state prison. You must be 18 years old to legally marry without your parents consent in New York. Individuals who are 16 or 17 years old need a parental consent form completed by both parents (or the custodial parent.) Individuals who are 14 or 15 years old may marry in New York only with both their parent’s permission and that of a family court judge or a justice of the State Supreme Court. Persons aged 14 years and under cannot marry in New York. http://blog.laborlawtalk.com/2006/11/09/new-york-age-of-consent-laws/ http://www.nycagainstrape.org/survivors_legal.html
  • I am not sure about the age of consent, but I know it would be illegal for me to kick his a$$.
  • i'm not really sure if it's legal or not but it seems to me it is more important to make sure your daughter understands what she is doing and find out why she feels that she must have sex. is he pressuring her, is it a self esteem issue.
  • New York or not: YOU are legally responsible for her until she turns 18. She needs to listen to you, as you will be taking care of her kid should she get pg. If she refuses, I'd send her to a juvenile youth place, and see if the other kids in there can scare her into straightening up. Things to do: Work on changing that law. It is in the best interest of the State to do so, as they'll be supporting another welfare mom if they continue to give permission for kids to reproduce (underage sex). Work on finding out if this kid has a record, then mention his behavior w/ your daughter to his probation officer, his parents, your hubby (or ex) school authorities, etc. Whomever might want to make his life miserable for sleeping with your daughter. And consider taking your daughter to a preemie ward, a jail, a young moms support group, an abortion Dr- she needs to hear what happens to others like her. Good luck
  • It's perfectly fine. I know at least 3 15 year olds going out with 13 year olds. Though, I wouldn't even consider sex. You're both too young for that.
  • yes. i am 14 and going out with a 12 year old. as long as you dont hurt the person or treat them badly.
  • Well I don't think that 13 year olds should date at all. And 14 year olds are pretty iffy too. But if they insist on doing it, then they shouldn't date more than 2 years older than themselves. So I think you're fine.
  • yea sure but only if her parents dont mind
  • Yes - you are in safe territory and it is fine. I guess the only thing that would not be advisable is to do anything which you can not be responsible for at this point in your life.
  • Absolutely normal! I did it myself. Man, that was a long time ago now...
  • This is the most retarded question I have ever known. Of course this is not illegal what are you a morron. I know it is not right for people that young to have sex, and I understand that. Maybe instead of being an idiot about this you could actually talk to her about it in a calm dimeanor. But you probably don't even know what that means because you are so stupid.
  • sounds like your 13 year old has way to much time on her hands. How does a 13 year old have this much unsupervised time alone with a boy? Take a parenting class.... then you can worry about bigger questions like, "Is a 15 year old boy and his family responsible for child support because my 13 year old is pregnant!"
  • The answer to your question seems to be 'no,' but I'm guessing that's not the real issue here. I'm guessing you don't want your 13 year old daughter to be having sex with your 15 year old boyfriend and that you'd like to be able to use "That's illegal" as an excuse to forbid it. If I'm wrong, I apologize and feel free to stop reading now. If you're still reading, let me point something out: forbidding your daughter to continue this relationship is likely to accomplish exactly one thing, and that's making her resent you. A serious discussion -- no talking down to her, no dismissing her opinions because of her age -- will probably get you further. If nothing else, hopefully she'll be more willing to go to you if things go badly instead of trying to look out for herself and getting into an even worse situation. And I'll stop lecturing now.
  • My wife first had sex at 13,My sisters started at 13 and 14. When you go to the mall you see a lot of 12,13 14years old's with their Boyfriends, kissing cuddling and making out. I have a cousin who works in a Pharmacy, there are a lot of 12 to 16 year olds on the pill, the doseage is not for period pain.
  • tell your daughter shes to fucking young to have sex anyways!!!!
