Thank you for bringing up teenagers. To me, this is what the issue is about. I'm 19, and personally, my "internal check" says that high school girls are hot.

i think this not just about grey areas but a wide variety of scenerios as well. it is about protection of children, not violating anyone's rights, not discriminating, not forcing your personal beliefs on others, etc. there is also a big difference in a law that needs to exist to at least attempt to protect society from harm and a parent that wants to protect their children by enforcing some boundaries and morals for them to abide by. this does not mean that no one is going to break a law and a child is not going to test those boundaries and morals...but at least we all have some guidines for a civilized way to live. it is the right of everyone to follow as much as unfortunately it is the freedom of anyone to not. i personally think it would be disastrous and chaotic if we were all just running amok doing whatever, whenever and with whomever we wanted no matter how old we were! |

If you are 25 years old you for example don't have the passive voting right of being elected as president of the United States because you haven't reached the minimum age.
