[Kim H]

[The Ghost of Stan Darsh]

I'd have to see a picture before I would do this, but I'd most likely want to give that kid a high five.

 

[Sarah]

Yes, it's called statutory rape. Provided he presses charges, or his parents press charges, of course.

 

[M]

Yes. A minor is a minor especially at 16. That is a 8 year age difference. I think the legal limit is no more than 5 years in some states.

 

[Josh T]

I hope so, you can't have double standers.

 

[Robin L]

In most states yes.
