Looks like it isn't gonna die. Seems to have taken on a life of it's own. That's the problem when you discuss personal stuff on the internet and what people were trying to convey to you throughout this thread.
Good luck Kc3 and find new friends. Hang out with successful peopel doing great things and they will lift you up.
Why is that? That is how our legal system works. It is not just one national system that oversees it all. There is a purpose for our state and local governments and they uphold community standards. While some things are legislated on a national level, a lot of things are done on a State or even local level. I don't see a problem with it at all. It works pretty well actually.
Age of consent in PA (where I live) is 14 as well, but I think they have stipulations to it... Basically theres a 2 year age difference limitation... So 14 and 16 is fine... 14 and 17 is not... Once you hit 18 you're free to do whoever you want... Canada is decent with the drinking age and other things, but age of consent at 12? If I had a 12 year old daughter and she was dating a 30 year old man, their combined age would be 12... Thats all I'm saying..
