    What are all of you YOUNG girls doing with these OLDER men? Clearly, you are not in love. They only want one thing from you and its sex. It is illegal if you are under 18 to have sex. And for all of you out there with boyfriends who you claim to be in love with that are 21 and 19 and you are only 15 or 16, you aren't in love. Those guys will take anything they want from you and it looks like you are willing to give it since you think you are in "love". Reconsider what love is and what it means.

    ok I dont think age matters its just what u do. Parents you cant stop what your kids do,they should be old enough to make there own decisions.You cant keep them locked up forever.It just draws then away from you.
