16yr Old Pregnant By 21 Yr Old Bf Posted: 01-21-04 02:17am
Can my boyfriend get in trouble by me
being pregnant and giving birth? The sex
was consentual and I will be 17 soon. I
need to know if the doctors are permitted
to report underage sex and if my bf will
get in trouble if I deliver the baby.

It depends on your state. I'm not really
sure how it works but I don't think the
doctors would report it. Where do you
live? Getting an abortion wouldn't make
it better though. How far along are you?

In alot of states the age is actually 16
and I think not positive though, that
someone has to actually press charges.
Otherwise most of the males species would
be in jail! Do your parents know? Do
they support your relationship?

I posted before in the other topic...But
it depends on the state and if your
parents are going to press charges. But
for me...I was 16 when I got preg by my
then bf (now hubby) who was 23. My
grandmother tried everything in her power
to have him locked up, but they couldn't
because the consent age was 16 for pa.
Good luck, sweetie,

My b/f was 18 and I am 16 and he's sitting
in the la crosse county jail. He's in
there for staturoy rape. In some cases
they will do some thing and in others they
won't. Why I say that is my 15 year old
friend is p/g. Also by a guy who is one
month younger than my b/f and he's not in
any trouble. I don't know why it is but
just be careful and watch ur'e back...
