I'm not one to argue for arbitrary ages on anything - driver's licenses, drinking, joining the military, or even the age of consent. I simply don't like applying arbitrary ages to things, as it is very much on an individual basis. However, the law must start somewhere, and thus they pick an age that seems most reasonable for a majority of people.
As we all know, there are some people who break such laws: Plenty of kids drink underage, some have lied about their age to join the military, and in pop-culture history, we have one Brian (Anthony Michael Hall in The Breakfast Club) who has a fake ID for the sole reason of voting. And, of course, there are plenty of pedophiles and ephebophiles that break age of consent laws on a daily basis.
Many of the people who break AoC laws end up in prison (or worse, in prison AND caught by Chris Hansen on television), but some get away with it. Many of the ones who are caught get turned in by the parents of the "victim". Sometimes, the parents let it go on for awhile and only turn the person in after something happens that they do not approve of, while other times, the parents turn in the perpetrator as soon as they find out.
But then, sometimes, there are those special parents that love their kids, look out for them, and wholly approve of their lifestyle and wishes parents like Tracy Lisi and another woman:[1]
(Sept. 12) - Two New York mothers allegedly signed an agreement allowing one mom's 13-year-old daughter and the other's 19-year-old son to engage in a romantic relationship, police said.
The pact didn't impress the police.[2]
The pact didn't impress the authorities? You don't say.
What in the fuck is wrong with these two idiots that they'd actually think that making a pact would protect their kids and themselves from legal repercussions?
Now, the mothers face charges of child endangerment and the 19-year-old, Shawn German, is charged with second-degree rape, among other offenses, according to a Times Union report.
"They put something in writing saying it was OK for those two to date," Schenectady, N.Y., Police Sgt. Eric Clifford told the newspaper.
How very nice and open-minded of both mothers! Progressive politics have really come a long way in New York. I eagerly await them passing a gay-marriage bill soon.
German's mother, Tracy A. Lisi, 38, and the girl's mother, whose name was not released to protect the privacy of her daughter, thought the agreement would provide protection "should the 13-year-old get pregnant," Clifford said.
First, what mother even thinks her 13-year-old should even be dating a 19-year-old, let alone having sex (as implied by the "pregnant" bit)? And even if they approve of it, or don't turn the 19-year-old in outright, who talks to the 19-year-old's mother and doesn't tell the woman, "Your son is a sick pervert that needs to date girls his own age", who actually talks to the mother and instead says "Hey, this is cool with me, let's make a pact and avoid the law!"???
You know what would provide really protection from legal repercussions? Never doing it to begin with.
Breakin' the law, breakin' the law: You've gotta work on your angle, moms.
