I'm fourteen, and my boyfriend's seventeen. I just found out that I'm pregnant. If my Mom chose to press charges against my boyfriend, could she? Is it legal for us to be having sex? If he is convicted or whatever, what would he be charged with? Please help.
 
It is illegal for your boyfriend to have sex with you in Rhode Island. The age of consent is 16, which means you cannot consent to him having sex with you. Your mom could press charges against your boyfriend if she wished to do so. I'm unfamiliar with Rhode Island sex laws, but he would be charged with a sex offense, probably see jail or prison time and could become a sex offender for the rest of his life.
