You need to know the laws for Statutory Rape. Some places, it is anyone over the age of 18 having sex with someone under the age of 18, while other places in the states have loop holes in that law. In El Paso, I knew a family that tried to take a 30 yr-old to court for having sex with their, at the time, 16 year old daughter. The adult knew that law and knew her age, but they couldn't convict the guy cause she was willing to have sex with him on multply times. Now, normal law says that is Statutory Rape, but cause she was 16 and was willing to have sex more then once, the court treated her like an adult. Now the family needs to fight for child support and the 17 yr old has a kid with someone almost twice her age.
