Start by getting a pregnancy test. Clinics that do these tests usually have counselors to talk to you about your options. If you are pregnant, they can help you decide what is best for you. You do have options. Keep us posted. Blessings. GTKK

That's harsh. That is why we gotta learn self-control... I guess you have to make the best of a bad situation.

And the guy isn't going to jail... the legal limit for sex is 14, so there isn't a problem there. Hopefully the guy will put up some $$ for the raising of the kid. :umm:

this girl is real stupid.. i smell another fake post on sikhnet.. notice the systematic !! use.

the guy wouldnt go to jail first of all.. shes 17.. depending on what state she lives she basically is an adult.. she cant file any charges.. and she is repsonsible for her act..

i dont feel bad for her..

Its really really hard to trust someone these days... its not written on their forehead kinni vaari mooh kala keeta ehna ne... its really sad, depressing, and heartbreaking... only a guy can feel if he finds out his wife has done such a dirty thing before marriage, and only a girl can understand how heartbreaking and shocking it is if she finds out her husband had been doing these things before marriage... when these things take place in pinds in punjab, it becomes life and death issue, but majority of the people here in western coutries are soooooooo shameless (besharam) :umm::D:(:(:wub::D:(

[JSingh]

and it looks from her post that she is not even guilty for what she has done.... its amazing....

[JSingh]

i meant she doens't even feel guilty for what she did in my post above.

WJKK, WJKF:

Regardless of whether the SNYF post is legit or not, it should be noted that in most jurisdictions in the United States, having intimate relations with a person under the age of 18 is considered statutory rape.

Prosecutors have the authority to press charges against the adult (18+) in this type of situation. This is true even if the underage person consented. So the guy here most likely would face jail time if there is evidence to show that he did in fact engage in such relations (i.e. if DNA match proves he is the father, that's pretty much all they need).

Now, whether a District Attorney would actually prosecute is another story. It all depends on the circumstances in each case.

this post sounds fake to me cuz it sounds pretty absurd......but if its real...then sympathies to the girl if she was drugged before being "raped" or whatever......but if she's loose then good luck to her then.

thazz why guru sahib always says keep in control. :umm: what a wise guru sahib we have. :D

cali khalsa..

actually its not a national law.. its different for every state.. for example NJ law is:

Age of consent and statutory provisions prohibiting relationships between minors and adults: 16

First-degree assault if actor has intercourse with victim <13;

second degree if contact with victim <13 and actor is four or more years older or intercourse with victim aged 13-15 and actor is four or more years older

.

however.. since she claims to be 17 regardless of if the law states 18.. its merely an age deemed "adult" she can be in that catagory if other factors match the 18+ criteria. like we hear on TV.. "he/she will be tried as an adult"

but i dont think she has a case.. unless she reported the incident right away and took some actions

fyi : hawaii law states

Hawaii First-degree <admin-profanity filter activated> assault if actor knowingly has sex with victim <14; third degree if <admin-profanity filter activated> contact is with victim <14.

14 is too young.. they shud ammend that law to 17
