How much trouble could he get in for this?

Question

For like, a week or something, I want to run away with the guy I love. I would go back home eventually. I'm not unhappy at home, and I'm not unhappy at school, I just want to be with him. I don't know where we would go or for how long. I would tell my parents I was with him and that I was safe and I knew what I was doing. I would talk to my mom while I was with him, and she would know I was safe and stuff. So, its very very very unlikely she would report it because she knows what that would do to me. Issue here; he's over 18, and I'm under. So if my mom reported him he could get in a lot of trouble. But, if like, she knew about it and stuff after I was with him and knew where I was and who I was with and she didn't report it, whats the worst that could happen to him?

Answer 1

Why do you want to be with a guy who cheats on his girlfriend?  Have you so little self-respect?  This guy is a pig. Period.  I know you've fallen for him, but, sweetie, you need to kick his @ss to the curb.  Frankly, if your mother finds out about this situation you will likely be in more trouble over that than running away.

But just to answer your question, your boyfriend has already placed himself in a position where your mother could charge him with statutory rape.  If I were her, and knew all the details you shared here, I would file charges in a second.  This boy is just plain BAD NEWS.

Answer 2

Why do want to run away with him?

Do your parents not want you to be with him?

Do you want to run away with him just to have s*x and come back pregnant?

You are too young to be making these decisions which is why your parents are in charge of you until you are 18 and can have him

PUT IN JAIL and he will be labeled a s*x offender for the rest of his life.

Even if the parents don't press charges the police can do it without them.

It will effect everything about his life-even what kind of jobs he can have.

Don't be stupid and ruin this guys life.

If he is smart he will not listen to you at all.

It sounds like you are just dreaming because you don't mention that he wants to run away with you.

Doesn't he have a job he needs to go to?

If he is over 18 why is he messing with an underage kid anyway?

Answer 6

Ok before i start i just want you to know that ive been in your situation and the same things went through my mind so i DO know wat im talking about..

The reason the phrase "under 18" is such a big deal is because, whether you like it or not, YOU ARE STILL A KID... I know you dont wanna be lectured, but you need to understand that although right now you may THINK you know wat you're doing, YOU DON'T... you onlyt see the fantasy, you dont see the real cost or the consequences.

As harsh as that seems...its true... You're living in a dream world where you and the love of your life are going to run away and live happily ever after; you dont need anyone or anything; Jus the company of each other all you need to survive and be happy. BUT YOU'RE WRONG... TRUST ME.

Think about it..this guy is an adult...WHY IS HE HANGING AROUND WITH A KID (that IS what you are)...This is the dodgiest thig about your whole situation.

after that you need to think...will you have a place to live, does he have a job, what's he REALLY like: will he get abusive knowing that you have no one to protect you anymore...

What im trying to say is you may think you know this guy but how well do you really know him???? I was witbh this older guy since i was 14, and 4 years later it turned out he was cheating on me - and i was ready to give up evrything for him.

Please dont run away from home. i know youve planned it so you'll still keep in touch with you mum, but wat if he turns on you and you're left on your own in an abusive relationship...then what...

LOOK...bottom line is you shudnt be worrying about what kind of trouble HE cud get in for this (which is ALOT), you shud think about all the things that cud go wrong for YOU,

And finally...you obviously love your parents...why are you willing to put them through all this s*** for some guy that you, lets face it, dont even know (coz he semms REALLY DODGY). He needs to find a girl of his own ag - or maybe he cant coz hes a weirdo who like lil kids...and for you own sake find domeone around your own age...

You'll understand each oher much better and your parents will be happier. This guy obviously doesnt love you enough if he's willing to make you do a thing like this.

Answer 7

If your parents say he's having s*x with you he could get charged with statutory rape and have to register as a s*x offender for the rest of his life, possibly some jail time. Guess what, I've been to jail and people in jail don't take kindly to pedophiles, I know your situation is a little differnet but that's what he'll be viewed as.

Aside from that b/c your under 18 he could be charged with kidnapping and that carries a life sentence sometimes.

Don't do this for the sake of not ruining your idiot bf'ss life.
