'Normal' is not exploitative or abusive.

I understand why you feel the need to defend your son for having sex with a girl 5 years younger than him and still under 16 but most people do realise that its not an acceptable way for an adult to behave.

If your 13 or 14 year old daughter was having sex with an 18 or 19 year old man would you be so understanding?

Kids have actually been criminalised for playing kiss chase in the playground, thanks to the ridiculous laws brought in by the last Labour government, banning any form of 'sexual' contact at all between under 16s.

That's mostly the point - my daughters didn't date at that age. It simply wasn't allowed:p

That's the point? That it was the girl's parents who were responsible? Seriously?

I don't even know what to say to that.

Shut up then?

Surely there's other threads for you to troll/cause arguments on.

Don't you mean "Here's a link to the evidence that backs up the seemingly ridiculous and provocative claim I just made".

Surely it would have been better not to "allow" your son to date a minor who was five years his junior?

And to describe them both as "babies" minimises a criminal act.

At 19 he was the one who should have had more sense, regardless of her background which may have lead to her normalising the age diffference at that point.

So it was the girl's fault? Or that of her parents?

Not your son's, clearly.
