Re: Against the law?

No, it's not illegal to date someone 18+. If you were to have sex it could be considered statutory rape depending on the age of consent where you live.

Well, even if you were having sex he couldn't charge him with rape or statutory rape as the age of consent where you live is 14(I just looked it up). I guess he technically could charge him with some other crime if he has committed one, such as if you left your dad's house you could be considered a run away and he could be charged for housing a run away, which is illegal in the US, but I don't know about Canada.

It's not 16+ in other countrys? ( But seriously, who gives a shit what law says if your equal aged.)

Also, don't tell your dad you've had sex? whats he gonna do, check your hymen.

actually in Canada you can legally leave your house at 16
without your parents consent. (i'm 95% sure of that) but
when i leave i don't want anyone getting charged or anything.
basically i don't want the law involved.

What isn't 16+? The age of consent? No, it's not. It varies, even in some states in the US it's under 16 and apparently in Canada it's 14, which I personally think is too young, but whatever.
