At 13 she knew what she was doing, people need to stop thinking that teens don't know what the hell they are doing. Yes its bad that the guy took advantage of her, but who's to say she didn't use the guy to get cool stuff. She got a phone from him, and the only reason it caught on was because the mother (whom works 3 jobs) found out she had a phone.
So chances are the girl used the guy to get stuff because she don't get much as her mom works 3 jobs and probably makes barely enough to support herself and her kid. Since there was no mention of a father and the fact she is working 3 jobs means that the girl is most likely from a broken home(meaning its not all lollipop's and rainbows).
But the way things are in todays society the dude will have one of two things happen, either made an example of (most likely) or get like 10 years probation. As for the girl, I believe she knew what she was doing, she got stuff from him and in return he got sex.
Exactly what I was thinking. Okay, maybe not exactly but the first part is. I don't see why a thirteen year old can't have the brainpower to understand what sex is and knowingly consent to it. I mean, she's most likely watched porn quite a few times(name one thirteen year old who hasn't) and knows what sex is and probably knows the joys of it(well, now she does). But seriously, they had sex 3 times. This means that either she was raped thrice and no one noticed, or she consented to it. I'm guessing she said "yes" to his sex. Doesn't matter what he looks like, hormones are going crazy at that age. Now, if she regrets it and will have psychological damage for the rest of her life, then sure, he can be charged. But if she consented and doesn't regret having her friends worship her for having sex[CITATION NEEDED] then I don't see the problem other than the parents didn't monitor their child.
It doesn't matter if she's seen porn, that's not a good excuse. She's still to young to understand the ramifications.
You ask her if she thought about being pregnant? Her future? What if she got aids?
Did she contemplate using a condom or did he have to think of that.
Did she realise it could break?
Did she understand she could fuck over her entire life?
For a phone. A 13 year old is barely a teenager, she has no thoughts of worst case scenarios.
To her, sex is a thing. To her, sex could be a way of obtaining things in life, wich it shouldn't be considered, as the path that leads to involves waiting on the corners of streets waiting for cars to pull up.
Just as you can know that a plane can fly, doesn't mean you understand how it does so.
She's still way to young to understand the ramifications of her actions and that's why this shit is ilegal.
The hell is wrong with you people? Thinking she knew full well what she was doing. Hell, by promising her gifts it was like offering candy to a little kid.
To her, she probably never thought for one second that this could go wrong, unless she was caught.
