Question
What are your thoughts on a 18 year old boy, dating a 15 year old girl? and please give explanations.. i am writing an argumentative paper on this and can not find statistics or anything to back myself up for credibility.

Answer
Hi,
This is a good question. I am against this. I spoke to a lawyer a while back and it turns out such relationships could be illegal depending on where you are. It also depends on what you call a "dating relationship". On another topic I spoke to a pastor regarding the dating age and based on their response I would assume they would be against such. I know many Jewish people would be against such a relationship as their religion does state dating shouldn't happen at age 15. Some Jews do not agree with such.

I also as an expert here have seen a lot of 15 year olds get peered into intercourse or such with 18 year olds and for this also I am against such.

Please ask follow ups

P.S. I can give you one religious website with dating ages if you want
