Asked 7/27/2016 – Corpus Christi, TX

My boyfriend was 16 and I was 19 at the time he got me pregnant, but he has had another girl pregnant and he was 15 and she was 21. The mother/family allowed it all

Answer

If anyone has sexual contact with anyone under 17, a crime has been committed and criminal charges can be filed. There is a defense, however, if the parties are within 3 years of age, and by three years, it must be 1,095 days or less between your birth dates. The fact the family allows anything is irrelevant.
