What is the name of your state? California
Long story short. I live in Canada, my boyfriend lives in California. I am 16, he just turned 18. Is it against the law for us to see eachother? It is a long distance relationship, and can my parenst stop me? His parents approve. My mother approves. My father does not. He isn't my father on my birth certificate, he has no real evidence he IS my father. He lost custody and gained it back, is there anything he can do? My mother approves though. Can my boyfriend goto Jail? We're doing nothing wrong, no sex. And even if we did, can there be something wrong?
My father wants to call the cops in California. Most people around me says he will get no where, it's a wild goose chase, a random person from Canada calls America to report her daughter seeing a guy who is 18 while she is 16. People around me say it will get no where, he is doing nothing wrong. We are just simply dating, and in Canada it is 4 years difference you can date. I don't know Californian Laws, nor do I know my rights there or his.
Help ASAP would be appreciated, I'm talking to a lawyer tomorrow. But some background info before hand would be nice. This lawyer is Canadian, I seriously DOUBT he knows American laws. A law teacher in my friends school says if one parent doesn't approve it can't happen and he can do something because he is 18, and I have no rights in America. But this is just a Law Teacher I get different responses from everyone.
I have actually go into an argument which got physical and the cops showed up. They first said to him "She can date whoever she wants". Second, "We can't stop you from seeing him. You're 16, you can leave anytime you want". I don't know if they realized he is 18, and I do think they know because he did yell he was 18.
I have a flight to see him after Christmas. Would it look bad if he picked me up from the airport or should his mother come?
Thanks in advanced!
