Crime & Law Enforcement Issues & Death Penalty - 17 and 25 year old


Expert: Paul Edward Zukowski - 9/15/2009

Question
QUESTION: I asked you a question earlier about me and my 25 year old boyfriend and whether I'm old enough to legally consent to having sex with him. Well I am in Texas. I think the age of consent is 17 but I'm not sure and when I read the laws I get really confused...what is the exact legal age I can be with him?

ANSWER: No there no 3 year provision for over.

But your still a minor and parents could have other legal action if they disapprove.

Personal thought on this.
8 years is big gap at this point in life.
You might want ask yourself why would a 25 year want to involved with a 17 yo.
If he wants to hit a night club he not going with you for at least 4 years.
You might want to give this some thought.


---------- FOLLOW-UP ----------

QUESTION: What other kind of legal action could my parents take?

Answer
Contributing to the delinquency of a minor (cigarrette, alcohol or any criminal act) or if you cross state lines a Mann Act Violation is possible. Plus other misdemeanors.
Your still a child he is an adult. Your parents are legally responciable for you till you are 18.
I assume you parents do not know.
If they do not know why are you hiding it?
